THE THIEF OF JOY
Christmas comes with a lot of emotions and expectations from all areas of life. The thief (Satan) wants to steal our joy during this time and hold us back from experiencing the wonder of God being with us. We wrestle with insecurity as we compare our season to others on social media. We feel guilty for not getting our kids all they wanted or missing out on a family gathering. Sadness clouds the season as we miss those who passed away. Sometimes, we are even angry because of disagreements with loved ones. We must slow down and become aware of these emotions so we can address them in a healthy way to not allow them to steal our joy.
Pause to Pray: Use John 10:10 to lead you into prayer-
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
Take a Next Step: Be observant today- What is stealing your joy? What is reminding you to walk in joy?

About this Plan
The holidays bring excitement and busyness, sweet moments and chaos, blessing and frustration. In the hustle, bustle, merry, and bright, we’re looking expectantly for perfect presents and serene gatherings. The reality often falls short of our expectations. And that’s why celebrating Advent is an important rhythm for our calendars. Find time for silence and solitude with the Lord so that you can walk with joy this Christmas season.
