These inspirational Scriptural based writings, related to challenges, faith, hope, grief, & healing are posted monthly in IHG waiting rooms & the Glory Center to reflect upon, grow from & apply to daily living.
One has to wonder when fear, doubt, pain & hopeless despair threaten to overtake us, how we are able to sustain the hope, peace, joy & receive the love that we experienced as we paused at the manger on Christmas eve.
With Thanksgiving & the month of November behind us, we now step into December & the season referred to as Advent, which means “new beginning”, which is something we all need right now.
May this hymn and prayer be spiritually feeding in this season of Advent
It sometimes just seems easier to complain, worry, & focus on what is going wrong than it is to celebrate God’s presence in our lives & to live reflecting a spirit of gratitude & joy, don’t you think?
How can we bridge the gap between the beauty & suffering of life & abide in a spirit of gratitude & joyful praise?
There exists a solid belief in the hearts of the people created by God, though sometimes unspoken or unrecognized, that regardless of what the earthly challenges may be, all things are possible through this known Divine Spirit, and therein lies hope for our troubled broken world.
It is faith in our living God that will fill our hearts with His blessing of peace that when reflected will bring equanimity & healing to this diverse broken mosaic of life.
God offers us a path where we are led by the Holy Spirit versus an earthly path informed by the opinions & actions of the conflicted world.
The first step of living into our calling from God to be a peacemaker is to embrace & to live with God’s peace in our own heart.
