God formed the earth, created everything in it, and knows every detail of His masterpiece. He is perfect and powerful, yet He wants to know you intimately. He wants you to call on Him, and He will be your protector. Your rescuer. Your refuge.

Darkness. The world was in darkness. But we knew the Light was coming because God promised His arrival. Suddenly, one night so long ago, He came bursting into our world as a baby. And just like the morning sun, He overcame the dark of night and gave us hope.

You can travel the extremes this earth has to offer. From the physical heights and depths to the emotional highs and lows . . . God is always with you.

It’s humbling, really. When you consider the entire universe, the billions of stars and people, the noise and activity that never end . . . and He chose YOU! The Creator of everything made you, died for you, and wants a relationship with you.

We prepare to pray, yet our minds wander and every distraction is magnified. That’s when we simply bow our hearts and say, “Lord, teach us to pray!”

God, you are the only thing that matters. Remind me of your goodness and your love.

Our plan is not always God’s plan. Even if we walk through darkness and uncertainty, He makes our steps light because He is our strength.

God, you know me. You planned every intricate detail of my body, my soul, and my personality. And I love you for that.

A baby boy. That’s how God chose to save the world. It was God’s plan to send His Son in the flesh, and it’s His plan to affect every one of us through this gift. So trust in His purpose, no matter what your role, because He loves you so.

It’s inevitable. Rough waters will come. But the good news is that you are not navigating alone.
