Renewed Strenghth Each Day

Renewal isn’t always obvious or immediate, but it is happening. The trials we face are shaping us, refining our hearts, and deepening our trust in God. When we focus on our inner renewal, we find courage, peace, and joy that can withstand any challenge. No matter what we see outwardly, God is at work inwardly, strengthening us day by day.

Strength given and made whole,
God, do not take Your Spirit from my soul.
As Christ died for me, Your love sets me free,
Filling my heart with peace eternally.

Through trials and shadows, You light my way,
Your mercy renews me each day.
In joy and in sorrow, in whisper and plea,
Let Your Spirit remain, forever in me.

Love Without Limits

It took me a long time to realize that Love is more than a feeling. It’s how we treat others every day. When we show patience, kindness, and forgiveness, we put love into action. It’s in the small gestures, the words of encouragement, and the willingness to serve others that love goes beyond limits.

“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.” – 1 Corinthians 13:4-7

A quiet trust for the year ahead

Entering a new year often brings mixed emotions, accompanied by hope, questions, and uncertainty about what lies ahead. I am unsure what to expect or how every plan will unfold, but I have chosen faith rather than fear.

This year, my trust is in God to lead the way.

Even when the path isn’t clear,

As he orders my steps and guides my decisions.

I lay my heart before him.

Happy New Year to everyone.

Beyond The Decorations

The Christmas season goes beyond twinkling lights, festive decorations, and exchanging gifts. For me, it’s a time to remember that I don’t have to carry my burdens alone. I am invited to be still and trust in the unwavering truth of Christ’s love. This love transforms, uplifts, and brings true meaning to the celebration of Christmas.

Facing Hard Truths

I remember when I was young and thought all sorts of religions and belief systems would ultimately lead us to God. Listening to a morning devotion through an application on my phone called “Glorify” reminded me of this bias in the world.

In the Bible, Jesus unequivocally declares, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me” (John 14:6). His life, death, and resurrection are understood to be the ultimate revelation of God’s love and grace. Faith in Jesus is the only means of reconciliation with God and eternal life.

In the vast expanse where shadows roam,
A voice echoes, clear as a bell’s tone.
“I am the way, the truth, the life,” it cries,
Guiding souls through darkness to brighter skies.

Through valleys deep and mountains high,
This truth endures.
With unwavering faith, we take each step,
In His love and mercy, we find our depth.

Let his guiding light make you whole.
For in Him alone, true freedom lies,
“I am the way, the truth, the life,” He cries.
