Are You the One?
Christmas is a season of great expectations. But if those expectations go unmet, they can lead to great disappointment! And great disappointment over unmet expectations can easily lead to doubt. That's true about our faith in Jesus as well. It happened to John the Baptist, and it can happen to us as well! So we look to the example of John the Baptist, as he takes his doubts to Jesus, and sees why we have no reason to doubt our Messiah!
