Week 3 - The Heart of Christmas Brings Joy In All
Circumstances
Write Up:
The circumstances of life have a way of robbing us of joy.
Disappointment, frustration, and loss can suck the very life from us;
however, Jesus’s birth reminds us that, no matter how hard life is, we don’t have to go through it alone.
God has come to us full of grace and truth, and that should bring us joy.
We can trust that Jesus’s presence with us will reveal the truth about our lives and at the same time offer us the grace to see things change.
Prayer:
“Dear heavenly Father, overwhelm us with joy this Advent season.
Show us the meaning and purpose of true joy as we look to the birth of Christ with eager eyes.
Let our joy be contagious to those around us.
Light us up with your love, grace, truth, and of course, your joy.”
1 John 4:9 John 1:14 // Romans 5:8 // 1 John 4:9
Introduction
Good morning, church.
Can you feel it in the air?
The countdown has begun as we quickly move toward Christmas day and the celebration of the birth of Jesus!
We are in the middle of a sermon series where we have been discovering the heart of Christmas.
It can be easy to get lost in all the gifts, decorations, and parties and miss the central focus of Christmas.
Jesus was born to bring the gifts of hope, peace, joy, and love, and that is the real reason for this season.
The first week we learned we are offered hope in the middle of our circumstances because of God’s faithfulness.
Last week, we looked at the wonderful gift of peace that Jesus’s sacrifice makes available to us.
We are made right with God, ourselves, and others because of Christ.
This week, I want to introduce one more piece of the heart of Christmas: a joy that is ours no matter the circumstances or situations we face.
Illustration:
To begin our discussion today, I want to share a few different scenarios, and tell me which ones would bring you the most joy.
Are you ready?
If this would make you joyful, type in the word Joy!
If not, type “No Joy” (Consider having graphics/photos on the screen to accompany each scenario).
Here is the first one: you go through the drive thru of your favorite coffee shop, order your favorite drink, and discover the car in front of you paid for it.
Joy or no Joy?
Ok, next scenario.
You wake up Christmas morning and find that it snowed four inches overnight.
Joy or no Joy?
Or maybe pain because you now have to shovel it.
Last one: you water your Christmas tree enough so it doesn’t become dry and crispy and drop needles all over your floor.
Joy or no Joy?
(This illustration needs to introduce the idea that our joy often is connected to our circumstances.)
Maybe some of you saw these situations as reasons for joy.
This week’s sermon is so important because, for many of us, our joy is reflective of this illustration.
