Heavenly Father, help me release my worries about making ends meet so that I can fully be present and take in every moment of this special time of the year.

Illuminate God’s Glory

The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.—Hebrews 1:3 NIV
As November draws to a close, know that God’s glory is all around you. Even on dark days when it seems there is no good in the world, when the news is bleak or family troubles rise to a hilt, focus on His love for you. Look for the good, the evidence of His beauty every day.
Lord Jesus, thank You for bringing unexpected light to dark days.

The Grace of Forgiveness

If you, God, kept records on wrongdoings, who would stand a chance? As it turns out, forgiveness is your habit, and that’s why you’re worshiped.—Psalm 130:3–4 MSG

Making mistakes, hurt feelings, wrongdoings are part of being human, but the good news is that confession brings God’s grace. Because of Jesus’ promise to forgive, no matter how many mistakes we make, or problems we create, we can still receive His ever-renewing mercies.
Lord God, thank You for forgiving me—for lifting guilt from my heart and filling me with Your grace.
