A Christmas Devotional About God's Christmas card just to you� Matthew 1:18 His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph�(NIV) Surely God's hand was upon the hand of Matthew as Matthew wrote these words. Matthew gives us the name of Christ's mother and stepfather. As a result of giving us the name of Christ's mother and stepfather, the story becomes more personal to us. Truthfully, the Christmas story is a personal story just for you. It does not matter whether millions of others have heard or may hear this story about Christ's birth. What is important is God wants you to understand how important you are to Him. What is important in this story is the story is God's personal Christmas card given to just you and you alone. What is also important in this personal story is you know the name of Mary. In your personal life, knowing a personal friend is one thing. Knowing your personal friend's parents is quite another matter. The bond between two friends grows geometrically stronger when the two friends know each other's parents. In the same way, God has given you the personal name of Christ's mother and Christ's stepfather to increase the bond between you and Christ. May this Christmas card from God bless you and keep you. |
