What If There Was No Christmas?

Confession time: I’m not a fan of singing Christmas carols during worship at church.

Please forgive me.

So when Sunday came and the tunes started and I realized what was happening… I went into instant bummer mode. Ugh, Christmas carols.

But then one of my favorite worshippers sang “O Come O Come Emmanuel” by Sovereign Grace. I put the lyrics below. The key phrase that grabbed a hold of me was “the judgment we no longer fear”. This lyric line (I’m not sure what you call that) started to stir something big inside me and lead me down a rabbit hole of thoughts.

In The Silence - Zechariah

I always saw Zechariah’s loss of voice as a punishment. But a sermon I recently listened to opened my eyes to another possibility. What if there was a greater purpose to his silence? What if he was made silent to take notice of what God was up to? What if in his silence he finally took time to reflect on what God was doing? To meditate on God’s word and see prophesy fulfilled. Maybe it was still a punishment. But what if it was more. More about the forming.

Immanuel vs. Emmanuel

I have been confused for years on why sometimes “God with us” is spelled Immanuel or Emmanuel. Was I misspelling?! Is there a different meaning? Am I wrong, am I right? What in the world is going on? I never know how to spell it and I always second guess myself.

Turns out , it doesn’t matter! The Bible actually uses both spelling.

Quote on Christian Pride

For Christians, pride manifests itself not most in boasting, but in a lack of prayer.

guided prayers

Pray this prayer before you begin. Yearn to study Him, getting to know Him verses what’s in it for us.
When life is a little dry and mundance, when we need a little inner motivation, when we just need something to pull us out of this rutt… prayer this prayer and rest in His goodness.

Some of the deepest moments of my faith journey has been picking up a good read and letting the charcters inspire me. Christian Fiction or better yet Biblical fiction has a way of opening up our mind into what life MAY have been like back then.
These are two main resources that I love to go to when trying to dive deeper into a passage or theme in the bible.
