The Day after Christmas

The Day after Christmas

Today’s Passage: Job 19:25

For I know that my redeemer lives, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth

Thoughts of Devotion from the Scripture

The only difference in today and all other days in the year is the fact that it is the day after Christmas. To some, that is a welcomed day! To others, it may be a sad one, in that they will have to wait another 364 days until they can once again have Christmas.

There IS life 'after Christmas'; it's just that some don't know about that life. They are too busy satisfying self, building a life of their own, going about their daily chores and jobs, without giving consideration to the how's and why's of their being on earth. They don't know that the Redeemer lives, because they haven't found Him yet.

Today is the first day 'after Christmas', in which we can start, once again, spreading the gospel to the lost and dying world. We can help guide them towards salvation, the deliverance from the power of sin. This can be the first day in a 'new year', and counting down to the next Christmas, in which they may then take part as being a Child of the King. 

The Christmas season is better observed, if you know the maker of the day, the one who made it all possible.

PRAYER: Heavenly Father, help us spread the Word that the Redeemer lives. In Jesus name, I pray. Amen.
