In the glimmering lights and joyous celebrations of this season, have you ever felt that your joy remains just out of reach? As we gather on this Christmas Eve, let's discover a profound joy—one that not only survives in the face of suffering but also persists through pain. This joy serves as a guiding light, leading us to the very heart of why we celebrate: the arrival of Jesus, our savior, who brings resilient joy to our lives. Join us in unwrapping the gift of this deeper joy that transcends the festive moments, anchoring us in the true meaning of Christmas.

As human beings, we are wired for the word yes. However, we don’t always see God fitting into that picture of yes. We often view God as a finger-pointing being who loves to say no. That picture of God is simply not true, and that’s where the Christmas story comes in. When we messed up, God could have said no and written us off, but He didn’t. Instead, God said yes by coming into the world through Jesus. The Christmas story of Jesus entering humanity as a baby proves that God’s heart for you isn’t a stress-producing no, but a joy-producing yes. Merry Christmas from Northshore!
