Every day leading up to Christmas I’ll count down the “25 Things Jesus Says About Christmas” to see how it changes the way you and I celebrate the season when we go straight to the source!

After #18 of the countdown, you’ll think differently about what you do–or don’t do–during Christmas vacation, and how it enhances your Christmas celebration.

Merry Christmas everybody my name is
crisp Avila and we’re counting down with
the 25 things Jesus says about Christmas
to see how it changes the way you and I
celebrate the season when we go straight
to the source now number 18 comes to us
when Jesus and his students are walking
past a blind man and right before he
heals him Jesus turns to his students
and tells them as long as it is day we
must do the works of him who sent me
now just to unpack this a little bit
think about the gods of the ancient
world and like Greek or Roman mythology
they didn’t work they sat in the clouds
eating grapes far above human strife and
so imagine how strange it sounded to the
first century audience to hear that God
would come in the flesh to work so how
does this change the way that you and I
celebrate the season well as we start
Christmas break here or is your fourth
quarter wraps up or as your finals are
over and you finally find yourself
relaxing with your slippers on and
you’ve got some hot chocolate and your
feet are pointed at a roaring fire when
you do that you’re actually in the
perfect posture to celebrate the season
because according to Jesus he came to
work and do a work that you and I
couldn’t do according to Jesus you and I
are powerless against the reign of sin
and death you and I are powerless to do
anything about it and so our job is to
simply rest now this is the only thing
that Jesus says about Christmas is just
so happens I’ve got a playlist right
over here of the other 25 things Jesus
says about Christmas I would be honored
if you would take a look at that and
also hit like and subscribe thanks so
much Merry Christmas
