DAY#17 Jesus is the Bridge Advent Calendar
Welcome to Advent Season 2023!! Advent is the season that begins the celebration of Jesus' coming to earth. The word "Advent" is derived from the Latin word "adventus" which means "coming". During Advent, Christians celebrate the birth of the Messiah Jesus but it is also a time to prepare for the second coming of Christ.
I have featured a different Advent calendar each year since 2016. This year we are featuring "Jesus is the Bridge" calendar. Actually, this calendar does not have a Christian message - however, I have adapted it to show the true meaning of Christmas - The birth of Jesus Christ our Savior!!

Why the bridge you might be asking? Well, Jesus Christ is the reason why there is no longer any division between us. In Galatians 3:28 (see picture below) we learn that we are ALL one in Christ. That means it does NOT matter what color your skin is, nor what gender, it does not matter if you are from Palestine or from Israel and it does NOT matter which way you lean (politically speaking). WE ARE ALL ONE IN CHRIST - Jesus is the bridge that gets rid of all division and separation.
Today is December 17th and I am opening Box17
A horse-drawn sleigh, full of people, is riding into a beautiful village with a gorgeous sunset in the background.
Jesus is the Bridge over loneliness. It is because of Jesus' sacrifice that we now are filled with the Holy Spirit. God promises us that He will NEVER leave us, which means that we will never be alone.
"And the Lord, He is the One who goes before you. He will be with you, He will not leave you nor forsake you; do not fear nor be dismayed."
Deuteronomy 31:8
