God showed us that He is the reason for Christmas! And this will be our assurance that we will end in high note because we can have "hope" through what He has done for us! He is still not yet finished with us.

Jesus' birth reminds us that amidst everything that has happened to us, God's promise to redeem the world will still be fulfilled and we can declare and claim that as we live our lives.

Jesus is the King who came to rule us but He is also the God of Peace and Righteousness.

Jesus is the reason to celebrate! He gave life in this world of darkness.

Immanuel-God is with us! That is who He is to us! Christmas is celebrating the fulfilled promise of God being with us.

We are called to not just fellowship with the believers but to reach out to the lost and be God's hands and feet as we advance His kingdom!

We will have differences in perspectives, views, and opinions. Regardless of that, let's go back to the most essential: who God is and His heart towards His people.

We are all not perfect. There will be times when people will fail you but our goal is not perfection but to be Christlike.

When we experience challenges and problems, who do you go through this life with?

How do you see yourself 5-10 years from now? What is God's vision for your life?
