Suddenly…

DAILY VERSE

Suddenly, an angel of the Lord appeared among them, and the radiance of the Lord’s glory surrounded them. They were terrified, but the angel reassured them. “Don’t be afraid!” he said. “I bring you good news that will bring great joy to all people. The Savior—yes, the Messiah, the Lord—has been born today in Bethlehem, the city of David!

Luke 2:9-11

DEVOTION

I love watching “A Charlie Brown Christmas” every year. It’s a tradition I continue with my children. I’m grateful that they still air it, though I own it on iTunes. The great message portrayed in these verses, spoken by Linus at the Christmas play, still holds the weight they did 2000 years ago. God sparked into action His New Covenant with mankind through the birth of Jesus! A gift available to all who believe. God, through His great love for us, created a way for us to spend eternity with Him. Hope was born in that stable!

May God be glorified and may each of you have a very Merry Christmas!

Bradley Hilton has always been a believer; it was in 2000 that he reaffirmed his faith and went all-in for Jesus. He felt a nudge from God to start a men’s group in his church. Influenced by this group he began a regeneration process that changed his life for a more active service for God. He began a newsletter to encourage others. Its growth resulted in a blog, The Daily Dose – Daily inspiration from God’s Word. Bradley and his wife, Michelle, share life together in Texas with their four children and two grandsons.
