NU OLI — Glad Tidings (Advent) - Sunday, December 31
Lord, remind me often that You have been exceedingly generous to me. Help me to extend that generosity toward those around me, so that they may know who You are and have this “Good tidings of great joy," a Nu Oli in You!
Hope When it Seems Hope is Lost (Advent) - Saturday, December 30
It is not unusual for people of faith to have very serious trials in their earthly pilgrimage. At the same time, we rejoice that God doesn’t abandon us, that we have a Savior who has come to us and restored our hope and our future.
How Jesus Enters My Life (Advent) - Friday, December 29
Oh, how thankful I am that He became incarnate of the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, and was made man. He appeared, radically entering the family systems of the human race. And together, with all the other families, my family is awaiting His second advent.
The End of the World is Here! (Advent) - Thursday, December 28
We often get stuck between yesterday and tomorrow, either looking back or looking forward. We need to be reminded God comes to us in the here and now, and all we need to focus on is our life in Christ today.
Fatherhood (Advent) - Wednesday, December 27
As Jesus came into the world not to be served but to serve and lay down his life as a ransom for many, so too a Christian father serves his family, his wife, and their child(ren).
God’s Protection: In Teepee, Stable, or House (Advent) - Tuesday, December 26
Whatever your house may look like, be reminded in the coming year that true protection comes only from faith in King Jesus. Build your life and home on faith, hope, and love.
For You, A Savior is Born (Advent) - Monday, December 25
He came, born as a tiny baby, helpless and vulnerable. Just like us.
This is the message we point to on Christmas Day—the message that a Savior has been born to us all, for we are all image-bearers of God. This is the Good News.
No Room in the Inn (Advent) - Sunday, December 24
Many times, God comes to us so well disguised we do not see His image in the sea of humanity that surrounds us. In so many ways, we are like the innkeeper. He was busy with his job, earning a livelihood. He was stressed by the hordes of people who flooded into his town. His mind was on all of the things he needed to accomplish that evening, and he missed God knocking at his door.
Getting Down Low (Advent) - Saturday, December 23
Remember, it is often the simple and humble things that we do that make us the greatest in God’s eyes. What humble thing is God calling you to in your life? It may be the greatest thing you ever do!
Silent Hero (Advent) - Friday, December 22
“Who is going to take my place when I am gone? Who will be praying for our people?”
