The True Gift of Christmas
But when the right time came, God sent his Son, born of a woman, subject to the law. -Galatians 4:4
“Sometimes I feel lonely, and it makes me wonder how lonely they must get out here.” Speaking was Asteria, director of a faith-based community group who brought Christmas to El Campamento, a makeshift tent city where many drug-addicted people live. She noted how the holidays can be difficult for those on the street. So she decided to embody Christ’s love by setting up a Christmas tree among the discarded needles; by bringing them gifts, warm drinks, and food; and by leading the singing of Christmas carols. The response was heartening, she said, with many of the homeless voicing their desire to be forgiven by their family and asking for prayer.
In serving the people of El Campamento, Asteria and her team illustrate the true message of Christmas—the gift of God coming to meet us through His Son Jesus. As Paul wrote to the Galatians, “God sent his Son, born of a woman, subject to the law. God sent him to buy freedom for us who were slaves to the law” (Galatians 4:4–5). Even though we all do wrong, God invites us to become His heirs and children (v. 7). He calls those who live on the streets and those who live in mansions to accept His gift of saving grace.
Through Jesus, God gives us the true gift of Christmas right where we are. May we receive and share this gift of love. -Amy Boucher Pye
When did you first understand what Christmas was all about? How have you shared the true gift of Christmas with another?
Jesus, bring comfort to those who have no home tonight, and help me to share Your love in practical ways, to be Your courier of grace.
