We mark Christmas, not as routine
In remembrance that Jesus came
In order that we might have life
Life in all its fullness. (‭John‬ ‭10‬:‭10‬b)

Jesus is remembered over many good things
Jesus desired to be born like a man
Eat, live, suffer, die like a man
He wanted to identify with all that man does
But emerge righteous

God told prophet Simon, that he’ll never die
Till he saw the Savior
He received Child Jesus, spoke well of him
And praised God (Luke 2:25)

Jesus is chosen by God
For the destruction and the salvation of many
He is a sign from God
Which many people will speak against (‭Luke‬ ‭2‬:‭34‬)

Challenges in prison made John
To doubt whether Jesus was the Messiah (Mathew 11:3)
Let the fun/pain we go through
Not drift us from our faith in Christ
