Take It With You!

Throughout the Advent Season, consider the following meditations to aid you in your celebration of the Christ child.

Jesus gave up the glory of heaven to be born into a sin-scarred world. That glorious night in Bethlehem, every day of his life, and in the deadly pain of the cross, Jesus became poor for our sake. Jesus entered our poverty so we would no longer be poor. The priceless gift of a restored relationship with God and others is now offered to those who could never afford it. The outrageous wealth of his righteousness is credited to those who don't deserve it. To those of us who are poor, this is very good news.
