I am inviting you to see your calling through the lens of God’s grace rather than your insecurity. When God places an assignment before you, it is not because you are sufficient on your own, but because He is faithful—and your obedience allows His will to be accomplished through you.

May you be reminded that all we have is a gift from Him, and that joyful, generous giving is not about earning favor, but about responding to the grace already poured out for us in Christ.

Just as we treasure certain items because of the people they remind us of, this Advent season calls us to treasure Christ above all.

As you reflect on His coming, may you embrace the sacred opportunity to carry His light into places of pain, offering hope to those still searching for refuge in the darkness.

As we practice giving thanks—one memory at a time—we learn to trust that the God who cared for us yesterday will care for us again tomorrow.

By holding onto the promises of Nahum and Micah, you can face each day with confidence that God knows you, protects you, and faithfully walks with you through whatever comes.

We may not know how long our trials will last or what the outcome will be, but Scripture assures us that God sees what we cannot and is working toward the best possible end.

David’s words in Psalm 56 assure us that God notices every moment of our pain and holds our tears with deep love and intention.
