Advent Devotion: December 10

Luke 1:54-55
Every Christmas season, we look forward to and love because of our past experiences.  We each have favorite traditions we celebrate each year at Christmas time.  For some of us it might be, decorating the Christmas Tree or making cookies, for others it might be listening to Christmas music or driving around to see Christmas lights.  But these Christmas traditions and our past experiences of Christmas are a big part of why we look forward to the Christmas season.

Much like that, these last two verses describe how God has been faithful to helping and protecting Israel in the past.  And because God has been faithful in the past Mary knows that God will be faithful to her now.  And just like we know God has been faithful to us in the past, we can trust in him to be faithful to us in our lives each and every day, to be with us and watch over us and love us.

Activity: Each person should talk about a time when God took care of them in the past.
