When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought joy to my soul. Psalm 94: 19

God arms us with everything we need to find strength in Jesus. Sometimes we wake in worry and forget how to welcome peace. Doubt fills our hearts and we question what will happen next. We forget how it feels to let go and let God arm us with everything we need to feel the gift of His presence... 

God patiently waits for us to recognize why we need Him. He opens hearts and helps us find courage to LET GO of our fear. He shows how it feels to be courageous and provides strength by His power of love. He reminds us who works for the good. 

While we are held in the safety of strength, Christ keeps us going...He nurtures our faith so we will see how it feels to trust. He changes our hearts and helps us examine our lives. He renews us! He shows how to welcome Christmas calm and focus on Him. He helps us receive an amazing gift! 

God will help us handle our lives and allow us to recognize we are NOT alone. He will remind us to trust and steer us in the right direction. We will find strength to rise, when we've embraced the joy of a grateful heart and learned to let God handle the happenings of our days. 

Dear God, Thank you for moments to be held in HOPE as we let go of fear. We will put our trust in YOU and patiently wait for strength to arm us with everything we need. Thank you for showing us how it feels to be gratefully blessed. Thank you for Jesus! We will love You with all of our hearts and welcome the Christmas peace YOU provide every day of our lives. Thank you, Lord! Thank you! Amen
