The Messiah should be seen in every aspect of our lives. The Messiah should be seen in the way we walk into church and the way we drive out of the parking lot. The Messiah should be seen the way we usher by the door and stand in line in the grocery store. The Messiah should be heard in the way we raise our voices in praise in the choir and in the way we speak to our neighbors. And the Messiah should be seen and heard not only when we preach the word on Sunday, but as we conduct our business on Monday. The Messiah should live within us every single day and every way.
In this Advent season we need to remember that it's not just about the coming of the Christ Child into the world. It's also about the Messiah coming into our hearts and our lives.
Have a Merry and Blessed Christmas and a Happy and Prosperous New Year!
