Devotional:

Christmas began with the greatest act of humility ever witnessed. The infinite God became an infant, not in a palace but in a manger. Jesus, existing in the form of God, did not exploit His divine privileges but emptied Himself, taking on human flesh. This wasn't weakness it was love choosing sacrifice over comfort. As you navigate this Christmas season, consider where pride has taken root in your heart. Where are you choosing what you "could" do rather than what you "should" do? The Christmas spirit isn't found in the magic of the season but in adopting Christ's attitude of humility. Today, ask God to empty you of self and fill you with His servant heart.

Reflection: 

What privilege or comfort is God calling you to lay aside for the sake of others?
