Respite For the Weary
Isaiah 9:6
For a child will be born to us, a Son will be given to us; and the government will rest on His shoulders; and His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.
Matthew 1:21-23
And she will bear a Son, and you will call His name Jesus... for it is He who will save His people from their sins. Now all this took place that what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet might be fulfilled saying, “Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel, which translated means “God with us”.
My Child,
Accept Me.
Accept My gifts. Jesus
(Paul defends himself to King Agrippa), "About noon, O king, as I was on the road, I saw a light from heaven, brighter than the sun, blazing around me and my companions. We all fell to the ground, and I heard a voice saying to me in Aramaic, 'Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me? It is hard for you to kick against the goads.' Then I asked, 'Who are you, Lord?' "I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting." Acts 26:13-15
Dear Lord,
We all have a story to tell. Help us to remember a time when we "saw the Light", whether it was our first encounter with you or a maturing time in our walk with you. Formulate our testimony within us, and then give us the boldness to share your saving grace with others. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
