One On One: 100 Days With Jesus--ADVENTSample

Next Year: Walk with Jesus in the New Year 

And so the greatest story in history has begun. 

We’ve visited the people and the places surrounding Jesus’ arrival on earth and into our story. Or should we say, our chapter in God’s story. His is the bigger narrative— the meta-narrative of life and death, of strength and beauty, of choice and will, happening all according to His timing and to accomplish His plan. For history. For you. 

Did you recognize yourself in between the lines of the Christmas story? No matter where you are today, you can take heart in what God tells us about people like us. 

• Questioning what God is doing? Remember Joseph and Zecharias. 

• Waiting—for what seems like a lifetime? Remember Elizabeth and Simeon and Anna 

• Looking for God in a confusing culture? Remember the shepherds and the Magi. 

• Willing to do what God asks if He would just show you how? Remember Mary and John 

Trusting God is the thread that ties the whole story together. Will I trust Him with the details of my life? No matter how crazy that feels? Will I ask Him for faith to believe He’s at work? Will I listen for His voice? Those are your questions to answer. 

In Part 2 of 100 Days with Jesus, you will meet Jesus in all His one-on-one encounters with people who look and act a lot like us. How will He touch them? How will their lives change? What can we learn about God’s big story that touches us today? 

Walk with Jesus in the new year and find out.
