ISAIAH 66:10 (CEV)
If you love Jerusalem,
celebrate and shout!
If you were in sorrow
because of the city,
you can now be glad.
LUKE 2:38 (CEV)
At that time Anna came in and praised God. She spoke about the child Jesus to everyone who hoped for Jerusalem to be set free.
SUMMARY SENTENCE
Celebrate Jesus, who is the embodiment of the hope that delivers freedom.
PRAYER
Thank you, God, for Jesus, and the freedom that belongs to all as they trust him. Forgive me for latching onto counterfeit forms of freedom and looking for hope in all the wrong places. Help me to let go of all my faulty assumptions and expectations so that I can fully embrace Jesus as the sole source of the hope in my life. I'm going to celebrate this gift. Amen.
