Countdown to Christmas: Day Four

Busy, Busy, Busy. Anybody working with me? I have wanted to write all day; knew exactly what I wanted to share. BUT...I haven't been at home today. Stop...gotta go get ready. I'm back and have 15 minutes before we need to walk out the door to get to church for our Choirs presentation of "Experiencing God, the Musical." I can't wait!

Luke 1:14-25

God has broken His silence. He has began to reveal His plan for salvation. Salvation not from an earthly emperor but from an eternal foe and a debt we cannot pay. His plan is most unusual; but then again He is God.

His plan begins with an older couple who are to birth a son to be the forerunner of Christ. (5 Min.!) He is to "...ready a people prepared for the Lord." Ok this is where we stop today and ask ourselves some penetrating questions. Are we a people (corporately church) prepared for the Lord? Are you personally prepared for the Lord's return? For His presence? Are you serving God by readying others to be prepared for the Lord? We have each been called to go and tell and make disciples of all peoples. We each are called to be a forerunner of Christ. He is coming again. Even so Lord Jesus come now!
