Nov 26 - Jeremiah 10:6

There is none like you, O Lord;
you are great, and your name
is great in might.
Jeremiah 10:6

We are starting a season of greatness.

With Thanksgiving, at least according to its roots, our country set aside a day to give thanks to God for his abundant blessings.

Then for the next four weeks, at least in theory, we will be pointing to the manger and to the incredible love of our Savior. The Apostle Paul records the love at the nativity like this,  though he was in the form of God, [Jesus] did not regard equality with God as something to be exploited, but emptied himself, taking the form of a slave, being born in human likeness. And being found in human form, he humbled himself and became obedient to the point of death— even death on a cross” (Phil 2:6-8).

If we put those two pillars – God’s love and our thanks – at the corners of this year’s holiday season, it will indeed be a season of greatness. “O Lord, there is none like you!”

In Christ’s Love,
a guy who doesn’t want busyness
to be a pillar for this season
