Before David became king, he had to deal with an authority that made his life very difficult. He had to wait more than twelve years from the time of his anointing to the time he was appointed king. David's example shows us ways to respond to the authorities in our lives.

We accept a shallow understanding of love too easily. God calls a husband and wife to unconditional love; without it a marriage will never be as fulfilling as God intends.

Moses chose to be aligned with God and His people even when other paths are easier. You will show your allegiance this year, whether to God and His people or to human reason and cultural drift.

Abraham is a great lesson for us in waiting for God. There are times to move decisively, and other times to wait until God is ready.

Noah's faith in God led him to work hard for God. Diligent work for God pleases Him. Will you work hard for God this year?

Not much is written of Enoch, but God smiled on him due to the nature of his walk with God. How will you walk with God this year, and will He be pleased?

A simple herdsman, Abel, brought a more acceptable gift of worship to God than his brother. Will there be growth in your worship of God this year?

Mary had a lot of questions in raising the Son of God, and He was her first child! Can you relate to feelings of uncertainty?

Not everyone will share your joys or understand what you're going through. We learn much from Mary about waiting on God.

The difficulties Mary faced in her future would be enough to take the song from many of us. But she chose to rejoice, which I find amazing.
