Fourth Tuesday in Advent
Wonder of a Promise
(Light 3 Purple and 1 Pink Candles)
Therefore, imitate God like dearly loved children. Live your life with love, following the example of Christ, who loved us and gave himself for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God. Ephesians 5:1-2
God’s promise of unconditional love is shown in his gift of Jesus to us. Not only as Lord and Savior but as the one who came to die for us. No greater love exists than when one person chooses to die for another, and Jesus chose to die for all people. This kind of love is given to us as a gift that is to be given in the way that we live our lives.
Share one or two ways that you can share this unconditional love as a gift this Christmas season. Who will you give this gift to? How will it change their life?
God, help me to love as you have loved. Help me to give my life to you for your glory. AMEN
