  • The Gift of Salvation

    The Gift of Salvation

    Daily Devotional: The Gift of Salvation

    “Jesus answered and said to him, ‘Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.’” – John 3:3

    Reflection

    Salvation is God’s ultimate gift to humanity—a gift that changes lives and opens the door to eternal life. Jesus taught Nicodemus, a deeply religious man, about the necessity of being “born again.” This concept puzzled Nicodemus, who thought Jesus was speaking of a second physical birth. However, Jesus clarified that being “born again” is a spiritual transformation, a rebirth made possible by the work of the Holy Spirit.

    The first birth brings us into the world physically, but the second birth reconciles us to God, granting us spiritual life. It is through faith in Jesus Christ that this second birth becomes a reality. Jesus paid the penalty for our sins by His death on the cross and conquered death through His resurrection. His sacrifice makes salvation possible for everyone who believes.

    The Bible teaches us that all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23). Yet, God’s love for us is so profound that He offers the gift of eternal life through Jesus Christ (Romans 6:23). This gift is not earned by good works or religious rituals but is received by faith alone. When we put our trust in Jesus as our Savior, we are born again into God’s family and receive the promise of eternal life.

    Prayer

    Lord, I thank You for the incredible gift of salvation through Jesus Christ. I recognize that I am a sinner and in need of Your grace. I believe that Jesus died for my sins and rose again to give me eternal life. Help me to trust fully in His sacrifice and live as a new creation in Him. Draw me closer to You daily and help me to share Your gift of salvation with others. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

    If you are seeking peace with God, remember His promise: “For whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Romans 10:13). Reflect on these truths, and if you feel led, you can turn to God today with a prayer of faith, trusting in His saving grace.

  • Can the Bible Be Trusted?

    Can the Bible Be Trusted?

    Daily Devotional: Can the Bible Be Trusted?

    “All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness.” – 2 Timothy 3:16 (NIV)

    One of the great challenges of our time is the resistance some people have toward believing that the Bible is true and inspired by God. Despite the vast amount of evidence that supports its reliability, many struggle to place their faith in Jesus Christ. Why is this so hard?

    The Bible itself provides some answers. In 2 Corinthians 4:4, Paul writes, “The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel.” Spiritual blindness plays a significant role, but God has graciously provided compelling evidence to point us toward Him.

    Here’s just a glimpse of the overwhelming proof:

    1. Fulfilled Prophecy: Jesus Christ fulfilled over 300 specific Old Testament prophecies. The mathematical probability of one person fulfilling even a fraction of these is astronomical.
    2. Archaeological Discoveries: Time and again, archaeology has confirmed the Bible’s historical accuracy. Skeptics like Sir William Ramsay set out to disprove it but ended up affirming its reliability.
    3. Internal Consistency: The Bible was written by 40 different authors over 1,500 years, yet it maintains a unified and consistent message—God’s love for humanity and His plan of redemption through Jesus.
    4. Historical Testimony: Writings outside the Bible confirm Jesus’ life, teachings, crucifixion, and resurrection, with over 30 sources corroborating 100+ details about His life.
    5. Scientific Foresight: Long before modern discoveries, the Bible described scientific truths, such as the Earth being round (Isaiah 40:22) and the hydrological cycle (Ecclesiastes 1:7).
    6. Manuscript Evidence: With over 5,800 Greek New Testament manuscripts and thousands more in other languages, the Bible is the most well-preserved ancient document in history.
    7. Life Transformation: The ultimate evidence of God’s Word is its ability to transform lives. From prisons to remote villages, people encounter the truth of Jesus Christ and experience radical change.

    Despite the evidence, some still resist. Why? Sometimes it’s intellectual pride; other times, it’s the cost of surrendering to God. But faith in Christ isn’t blind—it’s based on a solid foundation.

    Reflection

    Are you struggling to trust the Bible? Consider the overwhelming evidence God has provided. Faith in Jesus isn’t a leap into the dark—it’s a step into the light of truth. What’s stopping you from embracing the gospel today?

    Prayer

    Lord, thank You for giving us Your Word as a reliable guide to truth. Open the eyes of those who doubt, and help us to share Your truth with gentleness and respect. Strengthen our faith as we trust in the evidence You’ve graciously provided. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

  • The Power of AI and the Knowledge Explosion

    The Power of AI and the Knowledge Explosion

    Daily Devotional: The Power of AI and the Knowledge Explosion

    “But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.” — Daniel 12:4 (KJV)

    In recent years, the rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has left many of us both amazed and uneasy. How can something designed by human hands seem to surpass human understanding in speed, creativity, and problem-solving? The capabilities of AI challenge us to reflect on the source of such power and wisdom. Is it merely the product of advanced technology, or is there something greater at work?

    Some speculate about supernatural influences or even quantum computing breakthroughs as the key to AI’s extraordinary growth. Others wonder if AI represents the “knowledge explosion” foretold in the Bible. Daniel 12:4 prophesied a time when knowledge would increase and humanity would travel “to and fro.” Indeed, we live in an age of unparalleled access to information and global connectivity, much of it powered by AI.

    But the question remains: How will AI be used? Like all tools, it has the potential for great good or devastating harm. AI can analyze vast amounts of data to heal diseases, solve global challenges, and inspire creativity. Yet, it can also be weaponized, spread misinformation, and amplify societal divisions. It reflects the values and intentions of those who program and wield it.

    As Christians, we are called to influence AI’s development with wisdom and integrity. We must ensure it aligns with God’s principles of love, truth, and justice. The Bible teaches us to be stewards of creation, and this extends to the tools we create. AI’s potential highlights our responsibility to guide it toward righteousness and to avoid paths that lead to darkness.

    Revelation speaks of an end-time world filled with signs, wonders, and deception. Could AI play a role in fulfilling these prophecies? While we cannot know all the details, we can trust in God’s sovereignty. He is the ultimate source of all knowledge, and no technological advancement will ever surpass His wisdom or power.

    The future may be uncertain, but our faith remains steadfast. As we navigate this era of rapid change, let us commit to using our knowledge and tools, including AI, to glorify God and uplift humanity.

    Reflection

    Are there ways you can contribute to ensuring technology is used for good? How can you bring God’s wisdom into discussions about AI and its role in the world?

    Prayer

    Lord, You are the source of all wisdom and knowledge. Thank You for the advancements in technology that make our lives better. Help us to use AI and other tools responsibly and for Your glory. Guide us to be stewards of wisdom and truth, ensuring that the works of our hands align with Your will. Keep us vigilant against deception and strengthen our trust in Your sovereignty. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

  • God is the Potter, You are the Clay

    God is the Potter, You are the Clay

    Daily Devotional: Be Like Clay in the Potter’s Hands


    “O house of Israel, can I not do with you as this potter does?” declares the Lord. “Like clay in the hand of the potter, so are you in my hand, O house of Israel.”
    — Jeremiah 18:6 (NIV)

    When the Lord led Jeremiah to the potter’s house, He gave a powerful picture of His sovereignty and purpose in our lives. Just as a potter molds and shapes clay, God lovingly molds us according to His will. The key is for us to remain soft, pliable, and open to His shaping hands. If we become hardened or resist His work, we hinder the beauty He intends to create through us.

    What’s remarkable about God is that He doesn’t only work with what we see as our “strengths.” Instead, He often works most powerfully through our weaknesses. The Apostle Paul reminds us in 2 Corinthians 12:9–10 that God’s grace is sufficient and His power is made perfect in weakness. When we offer our brokenness, insecurities, or perceived limitations to God, He can transform them into something extraordinary for His glory.

    Reflection

    Are you allowing God to mold you into the person He created you to be? Being clay in the Potter’s hands requires surrender, trust, and patience. Sometimes His shaping may feel uncomfortable, especially when He removes things from our lives or reshapes our desires to align with His will. Yet, His plan is always for our good and His glory.

    Consider the times in your life when God worked through areas you thought were weak or unusable. How did He reveal His strength through them? By embracing our role as clay and letting go of control, we open ourselves to the fullness of His purpose.

    Prayer

    Heavenly Father, I come to You as clay in Your hands. Mold me and shape me as You see fit. Help me to surrender my will and trust in Your purpose, even when it’s difficult to understand. Remind me that Your power is made perfect in my weakness and that You can use every part of me for Your glory. Thank You for being the Master Potter, who lovingly crafts beauty from the dust. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

  • The Lord’s Day and the Sabbath

    The Lord’s Day and the Sabbath

    Daily Devotional: Sabbath Rest – A Gift for Man

    “Then he said to them, ‘The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath.’” – Mark 2:27

    In the hustle and bustle of modern life, the concept of rest often seems elusive. Yet, woven into the fabric of creation is a divine rhythm—a day of rest. The Sabbath, established at creation and reaffirmed in the Ten Commandments, serves as a reminder of our need for restoration, reflection, and relationship with God.

    Jesus’ words in Mark 2:27 reframe the purpose of the Sabbath. It is not a burdensome rule but a gift designed for humanity’s benefit. The Sabbath was made for man—to provide a time of renewal and reconnection with God, family, and self.

    Any Day Can Be a Day of Rest

    While the traditional Sabbath was observed from Friday evening to Saturday evening, the principle of Sabbath rest transcends a specific day of the week. For Christians, the emphasis shifts from legalism to the heart of the matter: finding a regular rhythm of rest in our lives.

    Paul’s teaching in Romans 14:5–6 highlights the freedom believers have in this regard: “One person considers one day more sacred than another; another considers every day alike. Each of them should be fully convinced in their own mind. Whoever regards one day as special does so to the Lord.” This flexibility allows us to choose a day that aligns with our unique schedules and circumstances while maintaining the spirit of Sabbath rest.

    Sunday: The Lord’s Day

    For early Christians, Sunday emerged as a special day of gathering and worship. Referred to as “The Lord’s Day” (Revelation 1:10), Sunday held significance as the day of Jesus’ resurrection. Paul’s writings in 1 Corinthians 16:2 and Acts 20:7 reveal that believers gathered on the first day of the week to break bread, worship, and encourage one another.

    This shift from the Jewish Sabbath to Sunday as a communal day of worship was a reflection of the new covenant inaugurated by Christ. It symbolized the dawn of a new creation, a reminder of the resurrection’s transformative power, and the hope of eternal rest in God.

    Reflection

    Are you honoring the gift of Sabbath rest in your life? Whether it’s Sunday or another day of the week, setting aside time to rest, worship, and reconnect with God is vital for spiritual health. The specific day matters less than the intentionality behind it. By embracing Sabbath rest, we not only recharge physically and emotionally but also reaffirm our dependence on God, who is our ultimate source of peace and provision.

    Prayer

    Lord, thank You for the gift of Sabbath rest. Help me to find time in my week to pause, reflect, and reconnect with You. Teach me to prioritize rest without guilt and to honor the rhythm You designed for my well-being. May my rest glorify You and remind me of the eternal rest I will enjoy in Your presence. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

  • A Pilot’s Perspective

    A Pilot’s Perspective

    Daily Devotional: Navigating Life’s Flight Path with Purpose

    “Many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase.” – Daniel 12:4 (NKJV)

    During my morning dog walk, I happened to see four A-10 Thunderbolt II aircraft flying in formation overhead. Known as the “Warthog,” these military planes moved with precision and purpose, cutting through the sky in perfect harmony. The sight sparked a thought in my mind: what must it be like to be a pilot, seeing the world from such a unique perspective, high above the earth? While I am not a commercial airline pilot, imagining that view often brings me to reflect on life, faith, and the enormity of God’s creation.

    At 35,000 feet, the world below often looks like a bustling ant farm—cars speeding on highways, planes crossing paths in the sky, and ships navigating the oceans. It’s a humbling perspective, seeing the enormity of the earth and the seemingly insignificant size of each individual. And yet, each person is known and loved by God.

    Daniel’s prophecy reminds us of a future marked by increased activity and knowledge. Today, airports are hubs of constant movement as people rush to meetings, reunions, and adventures. The pace of life has quickened, and technological advancements have made the world feel smaller. Yet, in the grand scheme of God’s creation, our busyness can seem fleeting.

    From the windows of commercial jets, I have often marveled at the vastness of the sky and the endless expanse of oceans and mountains below. It reminds me of how small we are in the scope of the universe and how great God is. Psalm 8:3-4 captures this feeling well: “When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have ordained, what is man that You are mindful of him, and the son of man that You visit him?”

    Life can feel overwhelming at ground level. Deadlines loom, plans change, and the rush of the day pulls us in many directions. But when we gain altitude—figuratively or literally—we begin to see things from a higher perspective. The stress of today’s meeting or the anxiety over tomorrow’s decision pales in comparison to God’s eternal plan. In the grand design, God is in control of the flight path of our lives.

    Just as a pilot relies on instruments and air traffic control to navigate safely through turbulence and storms, we are called to trust in God’s guidance. Proverbs 3:5-6 reminds us: “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.”

    In the flurry of “going to and fro,” we must ask ourselves: Are we flying with purpose? Are we aligning our journey with God’s will? Or are we aimlessly circling, distracted by the noise below?

    Reflection

    Next time you look up at the sky or find yourself in the busyness of life, take a moment to reflect on God’s greatness. Remember that while our lives may seem small, they hold immense value in God’s eyes. Trust in Him to direct your flight path, and rest in the assurance that He sees the beginning and the end.

    Prayer

    Heavenly Father, thank You for the reminder of Your greatness and our place in Your creation. In the busyness of life, help us to pause and see from Your perspective. Guide our steps and give us the wisdom to live with purpose, trusting in Your plan. May we always marvel at Your handiwork and give You glory in all we do. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

  • Renewed Through Creation

    Renewed Through Creation

    Daily Devotional: Renewed Through Creation

    “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—His good, pleasing and perfect will.” — Romans 12:2

    In the busyness of city life, surrounded by towering buildings and bustling streets, it can be easy to lose sight of the beauty of God’s creation. But when we step into nature—whether it’s a quiet park, a sprawling forest, or a breathtaking mountain—we are reminded of His existence and His power. The intricate design of a blooming flower, the gentle rhythm of ocean waves, or the vastness of a starlit sky all testify to a Creator who is both powerful and intentional.

    Nature reflects God’s renewing work. Just as the earth moves through seasons of dormancy and growth, so does He work renewal in our hearts. The vibrant colors of spring after a long, barren winter remind us that God brings life where there was once death. In creation’s rhythms, we see His hand and are invited to reflect on the transformation He desires for us.

    Romans 12:2 calls us to be transformed by the renewing of our minds. When we pause to admire God’s creation, we allow Him to open our eyes to the truth of His presence and His will. The world’s distractions and patterns often pull us away, but renewal comes when we align ourselves with His purposes and embrace the beauty of His works.

    Reflection

    When was the last time you paused to reflect on God’s presence in creation? How can you let the beauty of nature renew your awareness of His truth and transform your perspective?

    Prayer

    Lord, thank You for the beauty of Your creation that reveals Your glory and presence. Help me to see Your hand at work in the world around me and to experience renewal through Your Spirit. Transform my mind and align my heart with Your will. Amen.

  • Reviving Dry Bones

    Reviving Dry Bones

    Daily Devotional: Reviving Dry Bones

    “Prophesy to these bones and say to them, ‘Dry bones, hear the word of the Lord!’” — Ezekiel 37:4

    Have you ever felt like your spirit was dry, lifeless, or without hope? Ezekiel’s vision of dry bones coming to life reminds us of God’s ability to restore what seems beyond repair. For over 2,600 years, the restoration of Israel seemed impossible. Yet in 1948, God fulfilled His promise, reviving a scattered nation and bringing life to the “dry bones” of His people.

    This story is more than history—it’s a message for your heart today. Just as God restored Israel, He can breathe life into the broken areas of your life. His Word, alive and powerful, offers renewal and hope even in the darkest valleys.

    Let Ezekiel’s vision inspire you to trust in God’s promises. He is faithful to revive and restore, no matter how impossible it may seem.

    Reflection

    What part of your life feels like dry bones? Ask God to breathe new life into it through His Spirit and Word today.

    Prayer

    Lord, thank You for Your power to restore and renew. Breathe life into the dry places in my heart, and help me trust in Your promises. Amen.

  • Transformed by His Spirit: A Journey of Renewal

    Transformed by His Spirit: A Journey of Renewal

    Daily Devotional: From Cocoon to New Creation

    Are you feeling stuck in a season of waiting or weighed down by the old patterns of your past? Discover how God’s Spirit works within us to transform our lives, renewing our hearts and minds for a life of freedom, purpose, and glory.

    Transformation is one of the most beautiful themes in both nature and faith. The process of change—from something ordinary into something extraordinary—reminds us of God’s incredible work in our lives. The metamorphosis of a caterpillar into a butterfly is a stunning illustration of this truth. What begins as a grounded, crawling larva undergoes a profound season of stillness within a cocoon, emerging as a creature of beauty and freedom. This process mirrors the spiritual transformation that occurs when we surrender to Christ and are renewed by His Spirit.

    The Promise of New Creation

    “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.” — 2 Corinthians 5:17

    When we come to Christ, we experience a profound metamorphosis. Our old selves, weighed down by sin, guilt, and brokenness, are made new through His grace. This isn’t merely a surface-level change but a deep renewal that begins within, reshaping our hearts and minds. As Paul writes in Romans 6:4, we are no longer defined by our past but by the new life given to us in Christ. It’s a transformation that sets us free, much like a butterfly taking flight for the first time.

    This renewal is the work of the Holy Spirit. Titus 3:5 reminds us that God saves us, “not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit.” Through the Spirit’s power, we are reshaped, empowered, and equipped to reflect God’s glory in a broken world.

    Seasons of Stillness and Change

    Transformation doesn’t happen overnight. Like the caterpillar entering its cocoon, we often go through seasons that feel stagnant or confining. These times of waiting and refinement can be challenging, but they are vital for growth. God uses these seasons to shape us, preparing us for the new creation He’s calling us to be. As we trust in His process, surrendering our fears and frustrations, we emerge renewed and ready to fulfill His purposes.

    The Spirit’s transformative work is ongoing. Paul’s words in 2 Corinthians 3:18 remind us of this continuous journey: “And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.” Every moment we spend contemplating God’s glory—in prayer, Scripture, worship, or simple acts of obedience—brings us closer to reflecting His image.

    Letting Go of the Old

    Transformation requires letting go of the old. For a caterpillar, this means leaving behind the familiarity of crawling to embrace the uncertainty of the cocoon and the unknown freedom of flight. For us, it means releasing our grip on sin, old habits, and the identities we once clung to. Through Christ, we are given a new identity—one defined by grace, love, and purpose.

    Letting go can be painful. It might involve confronting wounds, relinquishing control, or trusting God with parts of our lives we’ve kept hidden. Yet, every act of surrender allows the Spirit to work more fully within us, molding us into the image of Christ. The result is a life that reflects His glory and points others to His transforming power.

    Reflection

    Where is God calling you to let go of the old and embrace the new? Are there areas in your life where you’ve been resisting the Spirit’s transformative work? Remember, even in seasons of waiting or difficulty, God’s hand is shaping you for His purposes.

    Take time to seek His presence today. Ask Him to reveal the areas where He’s calling you to trust more deeply and to empower you to walk in the newness of life He has given you.

    Prayer

    Lord, thank You for the gift of renewal through Your Spirit. I surrender my old ways and ask You to transform me into the new creation You’ve called me to be. Help me to trust Your process, even in seasons of waiting or uncertainty. Shape me into the image of Your Son, and may my life reflect Your glory and grace. Empower me to live in the freedom and beauty of Your Spirit’s work, pointing others to Your love and power. Amen.

  • Anchored in His Promises, Completed in His Work

    Anchored in His Promises, Completed in His Work

    Daily Devotional: Embracing God’s Promises

    “The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; His mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness.” — Lamentations 3:22–23

    God’s Mercies in Every Beginning and Ending

    As the year quietly draws to a close, the moments of stillness often invite a deeper reflection. The rhythms of life—a seamless intertwining of beginnings and endings—echo the constancy of God’s hand over us. In each sunrise, we witness His mercies anew, and in every completed chapter, we recognize His faithfulness. Christ, the Alpha and the Omega, meets us in both the joy of fulfillment and the anticipation of what is yet to come.

    Reflecting on God’s Steadfast Love

    This season of transition from one year to the next holds a special opportunity for introspection. I find myself drawn to the words of Lamentations 3:22–23, which remind us of God’s steadfast love and inexhaustible grace. Looking back, I see moments where His faithfulness upheld me, even when my faith faltered. One such moment was earlier this year, when I wrestled with uncertainty in a challenging decision. It felt like standing at the edge of a storm-tossed sea, unsure of how to move forward. Yet, through prayer and the counsel of scripture, I began to discern His guiding hand. Romans 8:28 assured me that “in all things God works for the good of those who love Him.” The storm didn’t cease immediately, but His peace anchored me through it.

    A Season of Joy and Grace

    The Christmas season is a tangible reminder of this enduring grace. The twinkling lights, the familiar carols, and the laughter of loved ones all point to a deeper beauty—the beauty of a Creator who gifts us moments of joy even in a fallen world. Psalm 19:1 declares, “The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands.” This verse resonates in those fleeting glimpses of glory, whether through the colors of a sunset or the warmth of a shared meal.

    God’s Work in Progress

    Yet, even as we celebrate, we are called to consider the work that God has begun in us. Philippians 1:6 encourages us with the promise that He who began a good work will bring it to completion. I’ve seen this truth unfold in my life through small but significant steps of obedience. It’s humbling to think that the Creator of the universe is at work within me, weaving His purposes through my ordinary days. Still, there are times when I find myself hesitating—moments when doubt creeps in and whispers that the path ahead is too difficult or uncertain. But in those times, I remind myself that these doubts are not of God, but the enemy’s attempt to discourage and distract me from His mission. With this realization, I resolve to press on, trusting in His strength to guide me forward.

    Christ’s Finished Work: Our Assurance

    Jesus’ final words on the cross, “It is finished!” (John 19:30), remind us that God’s plans are never left incomplete. Christ’s obedience, even unto death, brought the ultimate plan of redemption to fruition. His life, death, and resurrection fulfilled centuries of prophecy and secured the promise of new mercies every day. That same determination to complete the Father’s will is at work in us now through the Spirit of Christ within us.

    Strength in Weakness: Sharing God’s Love

    As I reflect on this truth, I’m reminded of how many people struggle with evangelism. So often, we feel unworthy or incapable of sharing God’s love, weighed down by our own imperfections, self-doubt, and fear. Yet, in 2 Corinthians 12:9, God reassures us with these words: “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” This verse reminds us that God does not call us to be flawless; He calls us to be willing. It is not our strength but His grace working through us that makes the difference. Christ’s love compels us to share His goodness—not as a task to be checked off, but as a natural outpouring of the grace we have so freely received.

    Hope in New Beginnings

    As the new year approaches, I find hope in the promise of fresh beginnings. Each morning brings renewed mercies and another chance to trust God with the unfinished parts of my life. I’m learning to surrender those areas where I’ve clung too tightly to control, trusting that His plans are far greater than mine. Psalm 34:8 invites us to “taste and see that the Lord is good.” It’s an invitation not only to observe but to experience His faithfulness in the most personal of ways.

    Reflection

    How has God revealed His faithfulness to you this past year? Are there areas of your life where you need to release control and trust His work within you? As you step into the new year, how can you embrace His renewed mercies each morning and carry His love forward into the lives of others?

    Prayer

    Lord, thank You for Your steadfast love and new mercies each day. As I reflect on the past year, I am grateful for Your guidance through joy and struggle. Help me trust Your promises, yield to Your work in my life, and share Your love with others. Anchor me in Your faithfulness as I step into the new year, reflecting Your grace and glory. Amen.
