Jesus cannot leave us in darkness. He is the Light, so when we draw close to Him, His light dispels our darkness. In this closeness, His light gives us the revelation we need in our lives.

We are made to shine in a dark world to help others find the safety of Jesus in the storm. We go through the same storms that they go through, but the light of Jesus in our lives MUST shine on to guide ALL who see it. He is the firm foundation.

Jesus is the Light. We were made to reflect that light, but it is impossible for us, unless we fully surrender to Him. This world needs us to walk in the Light, so that they might know Him, too!

God has never stopped being the Creator... He continues to make new things! He restores life, security, and hope to broken people.

Everything we have is because of what He did. He allows any person to meet Him at the manger, at the place of the beginning of new life.

Seeking God’s face for His revelation in our lives will give us “secrets” with our Savior. He is a personal Savior, one who wants to share intimacy with His people. We can find rest and safety under His protection.

When we don’t have strength, or feel strong enough for what we have in front of us, we are missing a specific element. We are missing the JOY that only Jesus can bring. His joy is our strength.

Jesus came to earth as the "peace child", to bring peace to a broken world. Without the peace of Jesus in our lives, there is no peace. Let His peace rule your heart.

We might not be able to get it all right, but Jesus can make it all right. If we let Jesus take control of our lives, and if we give an example of Jesus to our children, our families will be blessed in Him.

Before we even see the answers, we can thank God for the answers that are on the way. Having a heart of Thanksgiving is living a lifestyle of giving thanks to God for the things we can see and the things we cannot.
