The ABIDE Podcast With Gretchen Stevenson
Christmas Devotion: Wonder Of God's Love
Welcome to the Abide podcast. I’m so grateful you’ve joined me today. As we enter this sacred season of Advent, I invite you to pause for just a moment—to breathe, to rest, and to turn your heart toward the wonder of God’s love.
This season can stir so many emotions: joy, excitement, longing, or even deep grief. Yet in the midst of it all, there is a gift—one that speaks directly to the ache and the celebration in our hearts. It’s the gift of God’s love, reaching down to us through His Son, Jesus.
Today, I want you to hear His love for you in a deeply personal way, as though you’re receiving a tender letter from His heart to yours. My prayer is that these words will quiet your soul and remind you of the steadfast, unchanging love of God—a love that has come for you.
Enjoy ~
Pause & reflect:
1. How does knowing that God crafted you with care and placed a piece of His heart within you change how you see yourself and your worth?
2. In what areas of your life do you sense God’s light guiding you? Are there places where you need to surrender to His unforced rhythms of grace?
3. As you reflect on the gift of Jesus this Christmas, how can you share the wonder of God’s love with those around you?
4. Think of specific ways to be a light to others, pointing them to the wonder of God’s love.
