Reflect on the Blessed Mother

They all joined together constantly in prayer, along with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers.—Acts 1:14 (NIV)
This verse is the only mention of Jesus’ mother by name after the Resurrection. Scripture affirms that the Blessed Mother, Mary, spent the rest of her days on earth in constant prayer. Reflect on the profound hope she must have felt as she continued her devotion to God.
Heavenly Father, as I prepare to celebrate the birth of the Savior, lead me to look at the many Biblical figures and their tremendous sacrifices. Like them, guide me to live my life so that it magnifies You.

His Heavenly Peace

Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, “Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.”—Luke 2:13–14 (NIV)
When you feel anxious or overwhelmed with holiday preparations, find peace by worshipping Him. Be still and patient. Ask God to teach you how to worship like the angels this Christmas, praising Him for the gift of His son.
Lord God, lead me by Your spirit. Guide me today and every day.

Your Best and Brightest Gift

There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit distributes them.—1 Corinthians 12:4 (NIV)
This time of year, instead of focusing on gifts that won’t stand the test of time, consider the gift of being filled with Jesus’ light. Your presence can show others the power of a faith-filled life that stands the test of time. Your gift of light can bring glory to God.
Heavenly Father, perform wonders through my efforts. Shine through me!

Lighting the Way

The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.—John 1:5 (NIV)
Jesus is the Light of the World. Take that truth into the dark places of your heart, especially during the long nights of winter. When problems or difficult feelings entangle your emotions, ask God to help you see that good things are ahead. He will light the way to a better day.
Lord, You are my beacon in life’s many storms. You are always there when I need You, and for that I am forever grateful.

Unquestioning Obedience

When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife. Matthew 1:24 (NIV)
Joseph ’s faith and actions were shaped by his deep trust in God. He embraced Jesus as his Son. He followed the direction of the angel and relied on God as the ultimate authority. When you are feeling uncertain about something God is calling you to do, turn to Joseph as a role model of unquestioning faith.
Dear God, I aspire to Joseph’s extraordinary faithfulness. Help me to follow Your Word and accept Your will.

The Love of God

The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.—John 1:5 (NIV)
Does the world news overwhelm you? Instead, choose to be overwhelmed by God’s love. When Jesus entered our world, He brought the light of His truth. Let the warmth of His Light enter your spirit, clearing your mind and bringing you peace. The God of grace, love and mercy is with you.
Lord, Your light shines in the darkness and the darkness can never extinguish it.

Focus on Eternity

Don’t be so concerned about perishable things like food. Spend your energy seeking the eternal life that the Son of Man can give you. For God the Father has given me the seal of his approval.—John 6:27 (NLT)
When you are upset, ask yourself if your problem is rooted in a temporary situation. Shift your thinking to the eternal and focus on God. Rather than be consumed with the things of this world, allow the peace of heaven to fill your life.
