Advent Devotional - Day 9

Galatians 1:10:  Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.

Advent season is a great time to ask, “How should we live in light of the fact that our brokenness shows the beauty of the gospel”? Simply put, God’s opinion of us should be more important than that of the world. The work on the cross by Christ, should prove to you daily that God loves you not as you will be someday in heaven (perfect) but as you are right now broken and fractured. Embrace your flaws, trusting that God does not want to keep you where you are but wants to make you into something extremely beautiful - the image of His Son, Jesus Christ! Know that you are loved!
