Be Encouraged by God’s Word
Consider the blameless, observe the upright; there is a future for the man of peace.
— Psalm 37:37, NIV
Wisdom from Fellow Pilgrims
When the song of the angels is stilled, when the star in the sky is gone, when the kings and princes are home, when the shepherds are back with the flocks, then the work of Christmas begins: to find the lost, to heal those broken in spirit, to feed the hungry, to release the oppressed, to rebuild the nations, to bring peace among all peoples, to make a little music with the heart . . .
And to radiate the Light of Christ, every day, in every way, in all that we do and in all that we say. Then the work of Christmas begins.
— Howard Thurman
Pray Together with Us
God of New Beginnings, awaken everything in us that has grown too old, too serious, too sleepy, too cautious and or too cynical. Amen.
— Neil B. Wiseman
