Prepare Him Room: An Advent Devotional [Soft Cover ]

The Christmas season can feel chaotic and cluttered, but it doesn't have to be that way. Jesus invites us to experience the fullness of joy that only comes when we rest in his presence. In the Old Testament, God's presence is often preceded by an instruction for people to prepare themselves. Over and over, we read about God's intent to be close to his people, a nearness that must always be primed by our preparation.On a quiet night in the most unassuming place, Jesus made a humble entrance that would change the course of history. Our great God in infant form did not demand royal fanfare at his arrival. He just needed room – room enough to be Immanuel, God with us. This Advent devotional is for those who want to recover joy during the holidays! We need only to prepare him room.
