Birthdays are the best! For anyone who likes surprises, it's like Christmas all over again. Maybe everyone pitches in to give an unforgettable experience. Family and friends come together to celebrate the day you were born, but have you ever thought that the lives connected to yours would be completely different if you weren't born? Everyone you know would not have the chance to know the amazing you!
In the Old Testament, Isaiah the prophet hears from God that there will be a birth that would change the world and everyone in it. He begins to proclaim that the government will be on his shoulders, and he will be called, "Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." This is mind-blowing news! When Jesus was born, he brought things with him. Because of him, we now have access to a wonderful counselor, mighty God, everlasting father, and a bringer of peace we desperately long for. Jesus changed everything simply by being born.
How do you think Jesus' birth has impacted you? What are some unique ways your life has impacted others?

About this Plan
It wouldn’t be Christmas without angels! You’ll find them everywhere this Christmas season. They’re on Christmas trees, ornaments, greeting cards, carols, movies, and nativity sets. They’re all over the pages of Scripture, too. That’s because angels played an important role in the very first Christmas. In this 20-day devotional series from Grow Curriculum, we’ll discover why angels were and still are so important in the Christmas story.
