I No Longer Live?

If we are trying to follow God’s example, giving at Christmas ought to look less like giving presents and more like giving our presence. In fact, the best gifts celebrate our relationships with God and others.

We worship fully when we worship God with all that we are and all that we have. Worship reflects what is going on in our hearts. The easiest way to evaluate our hearts is to take an honest look at how we spend our time, energy, and money because doing so will indicate what matters most to us. 

This Good News should fill us with joy, wonder, purpose, and peace. Why do we often feel the exact opposite this time of year? Jesus wants us to live free from that feeling. Would you join me in choosing to overcome the cultural pressure and worship fully, spend less, give more, and love all?

We glorify God by making ourselves known as Spirit-filled believers who give thanks to God always and for everything in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

We are not called to dispel the darkness. We are called to turn on the light. You win the battle for your mind by choosing the truth.
