Blessed by Winter’s Wait

But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever! Amen.—2 Peter 3:18 (NIV)
On these wintry days, despite the frozen surface of the ground, new growth is beginning to form. Just as nature often grows unnoticed, your spirit and faith unfold slowly, little by little and day by day. Take a moment and give thanks for winter’s pauses, which give you time to rest and reflect on your own spiritual growth.
God of Compassion, thank You for nurturing and shaping me with Your guidance and love.

Lord, center my heart on You. Fill me with Your peace.

Overcoming Barriers to Feeling God’s Love

He said, “Go and tell this people: ‘Be ever hearing, but never understanding; be ever seeing, but never perceiving.’”—Isaiah 6:9 (NIV)
Have you ever felt like Isaiah, unworthy of God’s holiness? When Isaiah realized the error of his ways, a holy seraph placed a burning coal at Isaiah’s lips and gave him the gift of forgiveness. Take a moment and search your heart for any feelings of resentment or shame holding you back. Ask God for His forgiveness.
Heavenly Father, thank You for Your compassion and for reminding me that as Your child, I am worthy of Your love and forgiveness.

Today, if only you would hear his voice, “Do not harden your hearts as you did at Meribah, as you did that day at Massah in the wilderness.”—Psalm 95:7–8 (NIV)
Open your heart to hear God’s voice. He often speaks through His Word. Turn to Scripture and take in His message, knowing that you are developing an intimate bond as He trains Your spirit to recognize and hear His instructions.

Grow into Your Dreams

Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.—Psalm 37:4 (ESV)
C. S. Lewis said, “You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.” It is never too late to be who you want to be. Open your heart to new hopes and dreams.

God Has Not Forgotten You

Remember these things, Jacob, for you, Israel, are my servant. I have made you, you are my servant; Israel, I will not forget you.—Isaiah 44:21 (NIV)
Do you sometimes doubt that God has a good plan for you? Perhaps the winter doldrums have made it difficult to have faith in His unseen hand. If you feel lost, as if God has forgotten about you, remind yourself that He is preparing you for great things. He is always working things out for your good.
Lord, help me to be patient, to believe in Your work behind the scenes. Guide me to do my part in fulfilling Your plan.

Let Your Suffering Refine Your Spirit

Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.—Matthew 11:28–30 (NIV)
God doesn’t want you to hide in suffering. When you are feeling burdened, instead of shouldering the load on your own, turn to God. He wants you to turn your pain over to Him. He promises to give you the strength you need.
God, when I need rest and reassurance, fill me with Your peace.
