The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, says the Lord of Heaven's Armies. (NLT) -Haggai 2:8 Life is busy. We're so focused on achieving more, advancing our careers, and moving on to the next stage in life. While it's a good thing to improve, we need to remind ourselves that the purpose is for God's kingdom and not ours. As such, take a moment to reflect on this and think of how you can be a light to someone today from the successes that He's given to you.

But Moses protested again, "What if they won't believe me or listen to me? What if they say, 'The Lord never appeared to you'?" (NLT) -Exodus 4:1 Have you ever had an important event come up that you stressed out about? You wrestled and tried to plan every possible mishap or control every outcome to avoid mistakes. You are not alone, Moses did the same thing. Have faith, God does not ask us to do things we cannot handle. He will go before us and make way for courage, confidence, and peace if you trust Him.

Morning, Dec 28 The life which I now live in the flesh, I live by the faith of the Son of God. — Galatians 2:20 When the Lord in mercy passed by and saw us in our blood, he first of all said, “Live;” and this he did first, because life is one of the absolutely essential things in spiritual matters, and until it be bestowed we are incapable of partaking in the things of the kingdom. Now the life which grace confers upon the saints at the moment of their quickening is none other than the life of Christ, which, like the sap from the stem, runs into us, the branches, and establishes a living connection between our souls and Jesus. Faith is the grace which perceives this union, having proceeded from it as its firstfruit. It is the neck which joins the body of the Church to its all-glorious Head. “Oh Faith! thou bond of union with the Lord, Is not this office thine? and thy fit name, In the economy of gospel types, And symbols apposite—the Church’s neck; Identifying her in will and work With him ascended?” Faith lays hold upon the Lord Jesus with a firm and determined grasp. She knows his excellence and worth, and no temptation can induce her to repose her trust elsewhere; and Christ Jesus is so delighted with this heavenly grace, that he never ceases to strengthen and sustain her by the loving embrace and all-sufficient support of his eternal arms. Here, then, is established a living, sensible, and delightful union which casts forth streams of love, confidence, sympathy, complacency, and joy, whereof both the bride and bridegroom love to drink. When the soul can evidently perceive this oneness between itself and Christ, the pulse may be felt as beating for both, and the one blood as flowing through the veins of each. Then is the heart as near heaven as it can be on earth, and is prepared for the enjoyment of the most sublime and spiritual kind of fellowship.
