The Visit

The Visit 

Read Luke 1:76-79
Today’s Truth

There are so many ways to celebrate Christmas. It’s different in America than in England, our home. And those of German, Korean, Italian, or other heritage would agree that Americans celebrate Christmas in very different ways from their own countries.

Discussion Question
  1. How has God’s mercy led you to Jesus?
  2. What life problems are you trying to pick on your own? How does the coming of Jesus change that?
  3. How have you tried to change yourself or “Clean up?”  How does God coming near change that?
Life Application

The Dayspring has come to visit us, and this is certainly the English sense of the word. (I knew God was an Englishman all the time!) Jesus came the first time to earth to stay a long overnight—33 years of visiting. He didn’t just drop in; He came with the purpose of staying in the guest room of our lives. Though we often put Him in the “stable,” so to speak, He didn’t come for that reason. He came to stay. He came to settle in.

About the Author
Chuck Adair

If you ask Chuck his favorite thing in life to do, he would tell you it is the teaching and preaching of the scriptures and to call all people to engage in the great adventure of abiding with Christ. He desires to connect people with the richness, adventure, and fullness of life that comes through Christ alone and to reach the unchurched, de-churched, dead-churched, and unmoved. Chuck is married to his best friend Kristin and has two adult children, Taylor and Linley. Kris and Chuck believe the quality of their marriage rises and falls, not on circumstances or feelings, but based on their daily abiding with Jesus (Jn 15.5).
