My dear young friend,

Welcome to the month of December, a season of joy, celebration, and the beautiful birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. This month, let Jesus be born anew in your heart every day. As you rejoice in His presence, may you also carry His love and peace to many others around you.

You may have planned vacations, gatherings, or celebrations with your family and friends. May God bless every plan and fill your Christmas season with His joy and presence. The Lord has impressed upon my heart to share this precious verse from Luke 2:10,

“Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people.”

The angel brought this joyful message to the shepherds about the birth of Jesus. And this month, God wants to make you like that angel someone who carries the good news and becomes a blessing to others, spreading joy wherever you go.

Let me share with you two ways God will make you an “angel” to people this month:

1. An Angel Who Loves, Cares, and Helps

As the Bible says in Galatians 6:10, “Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people.” Every day, God gives us countless opportunities to do good if only we open our eyes.

‘There was a boy in our college hostel who was very studious. He always studied alone and never shared his notes or discussed lessons with anyone. Before every exam, he would avoid talking to others and go straight to the exam hall. Naturally, he scored very high marks. But there was another boy in the same hostel who was also an excellent student. Before the exams, he would take time to teach everyone in the hostel block. Even at the last minute, when some students came running to him saying, “Please teach me too,” he would patiently help them. He was always willing to lend a hand in many ways. Because of his kindness, everyone in the hostel and in the class loved him. Even today, long after college, he remains loved and surrounded by many friends.’

We are also called to be like him to help our classmates, to support those in need, and to comfort those who are in pain. Sometimes helping others can be as simple as teaching them or sharing what we have.

My friend, that’s how God wants us to be ready to help those in need, comfort those in pain, and share whatever we have. When you do this, people will look at you and say, “You are an angel to me.” Through your simple acts of kindness, they will see Jesus.

2. An Angel Who Ministers to People

Hebrews 1:14 says, “Are not all angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation?” God sends heavenly angels to minister to His people, but He also sends you His earthly angel to share His love, His Word, and His hope.

Once, a young man came to me at the Prayer Tower and said, “Anna, I want to minister to people. How can I do that?” I encouraged him to start by sharing his testimony in our U-Turn youth meetings. He obeyed, and as he shared, many young hearts were touched and strengthened. Today, that young man is a youth leader, serving God faithfully.

You too can be such a blessing, even at a young age. God is giving you the grace to be His messenger, to bring Jesus into the hearts of others this month. God bless you this December, my friend.

May you be one of God’s chosen angels bringing the joy of Jesus to every heart.
