“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”—Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV)
SOMETIMES WE MAKE the mistake of freezing people in time. We remember them at their worst moments and don’t give them a second chance or have faith that they can change. In God’s grace we can let go of our assumptions of people and open our hearts to see others as Christ sees them.
Heavenly Father, in the midst of winter, help me to let go of thoughts of others that are frozen in time. Unfreeze my heart.

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”—Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV)
