The Weekend

Hey! Hope you all are well! I am in Georgia leading through song at a student conference. I’d appreciate your prayers! I am asking the Lord to speak to us and meet us in a tangible way so that we’re not the same! He’s so faithful to meet with us and desires that we encounter him even more than I could desire! What a Faithful God!

I am so happy to be in cooler weather haha. Florida is always warm and I’m not the summer guy! I get to wear my boots!

As we are in the Advent season, I’ve been reflecting on the fact that Jesus entered our world. Emmanuel, God is with us!

John 1:14 CSB states “The Word became flesh and dwelt among us. We observed his glory, the glory as the one and only Son[b] from the Father, full of grace and truth.”

If you are a follower of Jesus you’ve heard this many times but my challenge is to really reflect on that truth. This changed history. At the announcement of his birth, Herod was thrown off! People came from near and far to see this baby Jesus!

As we think of God coming to us in this way and if we are to be like him, who are we running away from that we need to be present with? Who needs to experience the love of Jesus through us? I don’t just want to celebrate this season but to live in the reality of what this season calls us as disciples to “be”.

Love you each for free!

Until next time

Demetrius
