How silently, how silently, The wondrous gift is given; 

Read: Mark 8:27-30 

There were not any trumpets blaring on the night of Jesus birth. There was not fanfare that proclaimed the birth of the King. For most of the people in Bethlehem, it was a silent night. 

How many times do we expect God’s message to come in a loud way? A way that we cannot ignore or miss. If Jesus’ birth came quietly, then might God’s will for your life come in a similar fashion? 

How might God be speaking to you this Advent season? 

What ways might God be calling you to serve God’s reign?
