“For with You is the fountain of life; Your light we see light.” Psalms 36:9 Life is the best thing God has given to you. So be grateful for it. When you accept the good-ness of life, you will stop fighting against it. When you accept that life is good, all impatience and frustration will be removed and life becomes a satisfying and exciting experience. Allow your life to be controlled by godly principles and it will become and expression of those plans. You will possess a unity with the fullness of God.

“When the designated time had come, God sent forth His Son born of a woman, born under the law, to deliver from the law those who were subjected to it, so that we might receive our status as adopted sons.” –Galatians 4:4-5 We began the Christmas season celebrating Jesus’ birth. On this eighth day of Christmas, we celebrate His conception, that is, the conception of God. To express the reality of His conception, God’s Incarnation, we speak of Mary as the mother of God.

In contrast, the Lord maintains that love for the world will totally displace the Father’s love from our lives. Therefore, we must have no love for the world (1 Jn 2:15), make no provisions for the desires of the flesh (Rm 13:14), and crucify the “flesh with its passions and desires” (Gal 5:24). Love for the world is like cancer. Even a little bit of it...

“Simeon blessed them and said to Mary His mother: ‘This Child is destined to be the Downfall and the Rise of many in Israel, a Sign That will be opposed.’ ” –Luke 2:34 On the fifth day of Christmas, what does God want to do in our lives? How will our lives be different after the Christmas season than before it? The Lord certainly wants us to grow in faith. He wants us to end the Christmas season and begin the new year with a greater faith than ever before. The Lord calls us to see like Simeon and Anna....
