Advent Devotion: December 13

John 1:1-5

One of my favorite Christmas Movie’s is Elf, starring Will Ferrell.  The movie is all about a man who was raised as an elf trying to understand the normal world.  In the movie Buddy the elf, learns that he is not just an elf but also, a man, a brother, a boyfriend, a son, and more.  Just like Buddy we all have different roles to play in life.  We might be a, brother or sister, mom or dad, son or daughter, friend, student, or many more. 

These first verses in John are kind of confusing but what the Bible is saying is that Jesus is God and has been God since the beginning even though he was only born as a man, 2000 years ago.  It’s hard to understand but the important thing to remember is that God loves us so much he became a man and came to earth to save us.

Activity: Talk about the different you have in life, do you have a favorite?
