Motivation Monday New Life

Spring has a way of inviting us to remember that if God is concerned about creation how much more does His heart of compassion lean towards us? This week may we be reminded that in every difficult moment God is present with us, therefore we have no need to fear.

As we celebrate Black History Month, we can reflect on the words of the deeply rich message of faith in the "Negro Anthem" Lift Every Voice and Sing. The song reminds believers that in trouble or triumph, we must remain constant in our faith and trust in God.

The anniversary celebration of our Saviors birth is a reminder of the important pieces of God's eternal plan. God intentionally picked each person who would play a part in the narrative of Jesus' life, including His earthly Father. Just like Joseph, we have been chosen to be a part of the continuation of the redemption narrative.

Forgiveness is a difficult human task, practically impossible to do on our own. But when we rely on God's Spirit to aid us in exercising the gift of forgiveness what was impossible becomes possible, no matter how great the offense or damage was done to us.

Despite the uncertainty and chaos of our world, we can rest in the knowledge that God has His children in the safety of His hand.

Thanksgiving is more than just a word or words that we utter out of our mouths. Thanksgiving is an offering the we give unto God that reflects the nature of our hearts.
