When the angels appeared to the shepherds, Luke 2:9-11 tells us they announced that jesus would bring great joy for all people. For fun, check out this music video, a remix of a classic Christmas carol. Take a minute to consider this question: What did Jesus’ arrival mean for all of us?

Now celebrate this great news! Think of one thing your whole family enjoys: maybe it’s a walk in a nearby park, a favorite food or a dance party. Whatever it is, enjoy it together today and while you do, thank Jesus for bringing us joy.
