It’s easy as a mom to spend all of your time leading up to Christmas morning checking off a giant to-do list and completely neglect to set aside any time to focus your heart on what the point of all this fuss is - JESUS’s arrival! That’s why, over the next 4 weeks Karen is going to walk us through the Christmas story as recorded by Luke, and give you a slice of time that is just for your spirit. Today we are getting started in Luke 1 with the story of Zechariah and his wife, Elizabeth.

Questions for Reflection:

• Is my heart prepared for the Lord this season?

• What does it mean to be prepared? How can I prepare?

• Do I believe God can do what He promises in my life?

• Do I doubt God or am I quick to believe and obey?
