Meditations on "Acceptance"

We can dare to be optimistic about life and our recovery because God’s unconditional love will strengthen and build us up

Our outlook on life has a major impact on how we succeed in living life to the full.

To be “relapse proof” we must be fully surrendered to a life that prioritizes God’s will in all we think, say, and do.

We are growing in our faith that God’s ways are good and are seeking His guidance before we act.

God wants to take away our spirit of despair and give us anew hear of thankful praise throughout the year.

When we seek God’s help in our personal challenges, we are assured that He will help us and bring about those things He has promised

We need to look at our hearts before we look at our circumstances and see the amazing guest who shares this season with us.

The fact is, Jesus came to save us and obeyed the plan of His Father even to death on a cross.

From before the creation of the world God planned, through Jesus’ death and resurrection, the amazing gift of forgiveness and eternal life with Him for each one of us.

Just like it was for Mary, this ordinary day may become a not-so-ordinary day if we are willing to embrace God’s plan for our lives and allow God to work in us.

“Hark, now hear the angels sing, a King was born today, And man will live forevermore, because of Christmas Day”

The true purpose of Christmas is God’s plan to give us eternal life through Jesus. He awaits an invitation to come into our lives and make His home with us.
