Devotional Reminder: Why Jesus Was Born

As winter sets in and the year draws to a close, the arrival of the holiday season brings a time of business. One of the busiest time of the year centers on Christmas. The nonstop hustle of last minute shopping, planned Christmas trips overseas and visiting family members is clearly an evident sign of this. Surprisingly, through all this chaotic traffic of activities, some remember after a year's absence to attend their church's Christmas service.
It's important to remember the reason for the season. Christmas is in celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ. Why was Jesus born into this world for?
The Scripture says:
"She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins." (Matthew 1:21)
Through the busy schedules of life, whether its Christmas or not, may we all be challenged to be reminded that Jesus came down humbly to this earth to SAVE SINNERS from the fate of eternal separation.
PRAYER:
"Father,
Thank you for sending your son Jesus to die on the cross for man's sin. His birth was the greatest gift that I could ever receive. Through Christ, being on the cross for our sins, I am able to know you God.
In Jesus name I pray,
AMEN"
