The Gifts of God

Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.—1 Peter 4:10 (NIV)
“Above all else ,” wrote German theologian Meister Eckart, “know this: Be prepared at all times for the gifts of God and be ready always for new ones. For God is a thousand times more ready to give than we are to receive.” During this season of giving be ready to share the gifts of grace God has given you.
Lord, guide me to give my time, love and energy, so others may know the gift of Your presence.

Keep Forgiving

Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.—Ephesians 4:32 (NIV)
Notice that the word “forgiving” in this verse implies ongoing action. God is asking us to forgive, again and again, as often as is necessary. Forgiveness can be difficult. Especially if a wrongdoing happens more than once. Free yourself from hurt feelings, pray and be forgiving.
Heavenly Father, help me to forgive others as You forgive me.

Choose Compassion

For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.—Romans 3:23 (NIV)

Think About These Things

Finally, beloved, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is pleasing, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence and if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.—Philippians 4:8 (NRSV)
When you are struggling to be positive and find yourself complaining, doubting and being just plain difficult, turn to God and ask for the Holy Spirit to help change your mindset. Focus on Christ and the power of His wisdom and joy.

Arguing with God

“How then can I dispute with him? How can I find words to argue with him?”—Job 9:14 (NIV)
