"Glory to God in highest heaven, and peace on earth to those with whom God is pleased.” Luke 2:14 NLT

Sharing the love of Jesus is pleasing to God. He leads us to a prayer of praise when we ready our hearts to receive the gift of His everlasting love. God connects us with the gift He lovingly gave to the world. He renews us with HOPE. In gentle moments to be guided by mercy and grace, He fills us with PEACE and helps us feel the presence of our Savior.  

We need to be led where the love in our hearts sets the stage for Christmas Calm. Jesus helps us experience how to welcome perfect PEACE. In difficult days of doubt, He reminds us to be faithful. He opens our hearts and reveals what is missing. He shows us how to embrace the power of God’s greatness.     

The world will continue to frustrate the soul of our strength. But, Jesus will help us overcome! He overcame the cross and returned from death to show God through Him. The tiny baby born to die came to live again. And, as we take time to reflect on this beautiful season of newness, God shows how to humbly examine our hearts.  

Jesus will make His presence known. He will shine the light of love where darkness cannot hide. He will help us find clarity in what we’re allowed to see. He will open our eyes for what’s to come. The future will be so much clearer, if we focus on the Savior, gratefully follow His lead and trust in the timing of God’s will.   

Glory to God in the highest! Thank Him for all He has done! We must open our hearts for Jesus.  He will help us find STRENGTH in the power of love. And, He will remind us to be faithful, as we learn how it feels to surrender and trust.   

Dear God, Thank you for Your presence in our lives. Forgive us when we forget why we need YOU. Humble our hearts to remember Your will was fulfilled through the Savior. Guide us through each moment of our days and help us find PEACE when our hearts have been humbled for YOU. Amen
