This week we continued in 2 Corinthians and uncovered a surprising truth: Paul’s words in 6:1–2 actually point us straight to Christmas. When Paul warns us not to “receive God’s grace in vain,” he’s reminding us that grace has a purpose—God always intended His salvation to reach all nations. By quoting Isaiah 49, Paul shows us that Jesus is the fulfillment of God’s covenant with Israel. Jesus is the Servant who brings God’s salvation to the ends of the earth. That’s the heart of Christmas. The season isn’t ultimately about traditions, gifts, or family rhythms—even the good ones. Christmas is God keeping His promise to bless all people through Jesus. So the invitation for us is simple: don’t let the season revolve around you. Let your heart for Christmas reach beyond yourself and join God’s heart for the world.
