Christmas reminds us – our lives have deep purpose and meaning. Jesus’ birth set God’s plan to rescue us in motion. He came so we would live our lives to the full, by His will. Our purpose on this earth is to bring glory to God.

He may not answer immediately in the direct way that we want Him to, but let’s not count out that fact that He might…and then miss it!

We all fall victim to comparison, just as our teenage daughters and sons do. Sin isn’t something we can escape in this world. The deceit and distraction of our enemy is constantly hounding us. But our lives were not meant to be lived in fear, doubt, or insecurities. When we recognize those thoughts for what they are, we can then fall to our knees in prayer to God for the help we need.

The author of Hebrews is advising us to hold on tight, not just to the hope we have in Jesus – which is paramount – but also to the people God has faithfully placed in our lives. We were made to hold on tight to each other. God created us to be there for our family, friends, and communities. The more we hold tight to each other, the more we bring glory to the Lord the way He purposed us to.

We all face times when it's hard to believe, and I think God is telling us through this story to come to Him with every doubt and hurdle in the way of belief. We can praise Him with little energy as if scraping up the side of the mountain, making a slow and steady comeback one bit at a time. Doubts creep into life's hurts and try to convince us our miracle is not coming and our God isn't real. Those lies can take us out if we let them.

Each voice is unique in tone and character, inflection, and delivery. But there is one voice that has the power to command the attention of every earthly and heavenly soul. Jesus. 

God, the Author of time, allows us to decide what we will squish into those calendar squares. But, He does provide a wise process to follow when dividing our time between friends, family, and our community this Christmas.

We may not always say the right thing to our children. But we can speak life into them here and now.

Today’s verse is a reminder of how God has provided for us in our lives.

Fear is powerful. The phrase ‘do not fear’ appears 95 times in the New American Standard translation of the Bible. “Free” pops up 133 times. Jesus died to free us from fear, and in today’s verse, He reminds us why.

Much like hard times come in seasons, trouble comes in waves. Before we allow our lives to be swayed, it’s wise to determine the direction of the waves.
