The Hope of Christmas - Day 1
Happy festive season to everyone and may it bring joy and peace to all. I started reading a Bible plan on YouVersion today and it's just for 10 days. I will be sharing this plan called **The Hope of Christmas** with you and I hope you gain something from it too.

##Day 1

> Wherefore receive ye one another, as Christ also received us to the glory of God.  Now I say that Jesus Christ was a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made unto the fathers:  And that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy; as it is written, For this cause I will confess to thee among the Gentiles, and sing unto thy name.  And again he saith, Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people.  And again, Praise the Lord, all ye Gentiles; and laud him, all ye people.  And again, Esaias saith, There shall be a root of Jesse, and he that shall rise to reign over the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles trust.  Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.

-Romans 15:7‭-‬13 KJV

### Devotional
Showing warmth welcome is what we should cultivate the habit of doing to anyone around us be it the person is of the same belief with you or not. 
It might be your heart of kindness that will make the person repent from his or her deeds that those not glorified God.

We should be ready to receive even stranger as Jesus did receive us while we were still a sinner.

Just as God is always ready to accept "outsider" into His family through Jesus, so we should always be ready to accept/make an "outsider" a "insider"

"***You don't know what you can do today that can save a life tomorrow. Do good.***" - seyiodus

Have a wonderful day.
