Expect Greatness

He went there to register with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him and was expecting a child. While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them.
— LUKE 2:5 – 7 (NIV)

What are you expecting this Christmas? Is it under your tree? Are you hoping a loved one picked up on all your subtle hints throughout the year? Does it even feel like Christmas to you? Whatever you’re expecting the day or season to bring you, expect greatness to come from within. You won’t find disappointment there because Christ has placed a gift in each one of us to be birthed and bring joy to the world! And don’t worry about the world making room for your great gift. GOD has already made preparations for you. They may not always be what you expected, but what He has prepared for you will always be perfect and enough. Expect greatness this Christmas and for it to spill over into your new year!

Heavenly Father, thank You for birthing a gift within me of greatness. You created me to do good works and this Christmas I will look to be the gift instead of looking for a gift. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
