We take our children to look at lights and decorations. We bake traditional family recipes and gather around tables with people we love. We buy thoughtful gifts to give to our friends and family. We put forth a lot of effort to experience joy during this season; we give December an extra line in the budget, take advantage of our PTO, and fill our calendars with events.<\/p>\n<p>I thoroughly enjoy these special celebrations and look forward to them each year. And it is good for us to take pleasure in these common graces as they are a gift from our Heavenly Father (<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.biblestudytools.com\/james\/1-17.html\">James 1:17<\/a>).\u00a0<span style=\"background-color: transparent; letter-spacing: 0.00714286em;\">But did you know joy isn\u2019t only reserved only for the holiday season? The source of lasting and satisfying joy is always available. And here\u2019s the good news, it is easily found! This joy doesn&#8217;t require hoop jumping, budget-blowing, or running on fumes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>David wrote in <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.biblestudytools.com\/psalms\/16.html\">Psalm 16<\/a> that God\u2019s presence is where he found the fullness of joy. For the nonbeliever, the fleeting pleasures of this world are a grace that will pass away, ultimately leaving them dissatisfied and searching for more. Only when they come to know the God who made every good thing will they be satisfied and their joy becomes full.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As for believers, we enjoy these good gifts from God, knowing that they are a shadow of the glory that is to come. The path that God made known to the Psalmist and to us is the reason we truly celebrate this Christmas season. God sent His Son Jesus, who knew no sin, to become sin for us so that we could be made right with God (<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.biblestudytools.com\/2-corinthians\/5-21.html\">2 Corinthians 5:21<\/a>). Jesus, also known as the Word of God, became flesh and made His dwelling among us (<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.biblestudytools.com\/john\/1-14.html\">John 1:14<\/a>). And when Jesus\u2019 time came He died the death we deserved, and the veil that separated sinners from a Holy God was torn (<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.biblestudytools.com\/matthew\/27-51.html\">Matthew 27:51<\/a>).\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Do you know what this means for us? The presence of God used to only be accessible via a high priest who, according to the Old Testament law, had to enter the Holy of Holies once a year to make a sacrifice for sins on behalf of the people. If you weren\u2019t a priest, you couldn\u2019t even go near it (<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.biblestudytools.com\/hebrews\/9-7.html\">Hebrews 9:7<\/a>). Before Jesus, we were excluded from the presence of God and, therefore, unable to experience joy because of our sins. But not anymore!\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Jesus took the place of the High Priest, making an offering on our behalf, once and for all (<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.biblestudytools.com\/hebrews\/10-14.html\">Hebrews 10:14<\/a>). And while we wait for His return, He has given us a helper in the Holy Spirit. This is good, good news. And great joy! Dear believer, this Christmas season, we celebrate the birth of the Savior. We celebrate Immanuel, God with us. His Spirit is inside of you. His presence dwells with His people. And in His presence is fullness of joy.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>So as you seek out ways to celebrate and enjoy this season. Remember that true joy, lasting joy, comes from the presence of God. Take a moment to acknowledge He is with us, and we will be with Him forever because of this miraculous birth. This is our source of true joy this Christmas.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Let\u2019s pray:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Dear Lord,<br \/><span style=\"background-color: transparent; letter-spacing: 0.00714286em;\">Thank you that in your presence, we experience joy to the max! Thank you for making that available to us through the birth of your Son, Jesus! His birth is the reason we seek out experiences that bring us joy during this season, even if it&#8217;s only temporary joy! I pray we use this Christmas season to prompt us to acknowledge and engage with our true source of joy\u2013your presence. Thank you for making lasting joy available to us. Thank you for every good gift! Lord let us spend time abiding in your presence, and, Lord, let us be evidence to unbelievers that you are their only hope for true, lasting joy! Let it be undeniable that we have been with you, and thank you for being with us! In Jesus\u2019 name, amen.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 11px;\">Photo credit:\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"background-color: transparent; letter-spacing: 0.00714286em; font-size: 11px;\">\u00a9Getty Images\/Citysqwirl.jpg<\/span><\/p>\n<p><picture><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i.swncdn.com\/media\/250w\/via\/images\/2022\/11\/10\/28231\/28231-thewritersroom-25_source_file.webp\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.swncdn.com\/via\/images\/2022\/11\/10\/28231\/28231-thewritersroom-25_source_file.jpeg\" alt=\"Ashley Moore\" class=\"fr-fic fr-dii fr-fil\" style=\"width: 250px;\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/source><\/picture><strong>Ashley Moore<\/strong> is a writer and host of\u00a0<i id=\"isPasted\">be the<\/i><em>\u00a0two<\/em>\u2122podcast.
