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)
Is something distracting you from hearing God’s voice? Are you creating the time and focus to recognize His guidance? Your Heavenly Father sends His words of wisdom and peace again and again. Quiet your mind to receive His messages.
Dear Lord, I seek Your voice and long to hear Your promises and plans for me.

Tidings of Comfort and Joy

And the angel said unto them, Fear not:v for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.—Luke 2:10 (KJV)
Sometimes the joy of Christmas is overshadowed by the stress of entertaining, shopping and holiday commitments. Decide to simplify. Choose to spend your energy only on what you truly love about the season. Check in with God, and ask Him to help you prioritize.

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.

Focus on this beautiful truth: The Spirit of God dwells inside you, and because of this you can tap into His strength, power and wisdom at any moment. When you find yourself thinking negative thoughts or fearing your future, pray and feel His presence.
Merciful God, I am in awe that a spark of Your Light from the beginning of creation dwells inside of me.
