"God and humanity met that day. The visit of the shepherds to the manger took place under a sign from God. The baby wrapped in swaddling cloths was a sign of the Messiah, saviour, Christ. A sign of the fulfilment of God’s promises to his people.” Fleur Houston explores Luke’s birth narrative in today’s Daily Devotion as we celebrate Christmas.

"Joseph is rather a shadowy figure in the Bible. In Matthew’s gospel he appears in the stories at the time of Jesus’s birth, and again when Herod dies, and he has a dream about returning from Egypt. In Luke’s gospel, he is also mentioned when Jesus goes missing in the temple. He never speaks, but receives messages in dreams and obeys each one. We don’t know what he thinks or says.” Sue Cossey explores St Joseph’s part in the narratives of Jesus’ birth.

"When I read these verses, I feel the weight of Jesus’s honesty, following him will be costly, and sometimes that cost shows up in the hardest places, even within our own families. It’s not what we want to hear. Deep down we long for peace, for our faith to bring unity and to be celebrated by those we love most.” Mandy Bayton explores some hard sayings of Jesus about family in today’s Daily Devotion. https://ow.ly/2jGt50XBXch
