Summary

Experience the joy of Advent with our Bible devotion centred around Baby Jesus, embodying love.

Introduction

Christmas is a time of joy and celebration, where we gather with loved ones and exchange gifts. But amidst the festive cheer, it is essential to remember the true meaning of Christmas – the birth of Jesus, the baby who grew into a man and showed us the way to God.

Baby Jesus and His Love for Us

In Romans 5:6-11, the apostle Paul reminds us of the incredible love displayed by Jesus. He did not remain a baby in a manger; instead, he lived a life that taught us how to please God. Jesus walked among us, showing compassion, forgiveness, and love in every interaction. He healed the sick, comforted the brokenhearted, and taught us to love our neighbours as ourselves.

But Jesus’ mission did not end there. He willingly paid for every wrong, mistake, and failure we have made or will ever make by dying on the cross. His sacrifice was the ultimate act of love, demonstrating the depths of his compassion for humanity. Three days later, Jesus rose from the dead, proving that he was indeed God and had the power to save us.

Reflecting on the Love of Baby Jesus

This Christmas, let us take a moment to reflect on the immense love Jesus has for each one of us. As we gather with family and friends, let us remember that the baby in the manger grew into a man who sacrificed everything for our sake. Let us celebrate the fact that through his love, we are forgiven, redeemed, and given eternal life.

The Message of Christmas

The message of Christmas is a message of hope, grace, and salvation. It is a reminder that no matter what we have done or will do, Jesus’ love is greater. So, let us rejoice and give thanks for the incredible gift of love that was born on that first Christmas.
