The Gift of Forgiveness

Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.—Ephesians 4:32 (NIV)

Heavenly Father, help me to release the hurt so that I can love with my whole heart and forgive as freely as You forgive.

Ponder with All Your Heart

When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them. But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart.—Luke 2:17–19 (NIV)
In the above verse, Mary is overjoyed by the miracle of Jesus’ birth, but takes time to process all that had happened to fully comprehend the amazing blessing bestowed upon the world. Today, take a moment and do the same: reflect on the Child of Bethlehem and the miracle of His birth.
Merciful God, thank You for living among us, as one of us.

Tune in to God’s Voice

While you were doing all these things, declares the Lord, I spoke to you again and again, but you did not listen; I called you, but you did not answer.—Jeremiah 7:13 (NIV)

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.

Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past.—Isaiah 43:18 (NIV)
