15. Jesus Brings Us Great Joy

SERIES: 31 REASONS TO CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS

Luke 2:10
Then the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people.

We celebrate Christmas because we celebrate Jesus

  • whose coming down at Christmas is the greatest joy ever
  • He is the reason for the season when we remember that God sent His only Son into the world to save us
  • because He is the source of eternal and abundant life to everyone, everywhere who chooses to believe in Him

Lord Jesus, we rejoice with the shepherds who were given the good tidings of great joy at your birth.
May our joyful celebrations this season honour you.
