Persevere
“I have told you all this so that you may have peace in Me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.” John 16:33 11/18/24
Perseverance “will take us into an intimacy with God we often don’t search out when life is smooth sailing. We often see God the clearest when we are at our most desperate, when all of the meaningless distractions of ordinary life are suddenly stripped away. When life is hardest, press into God. He will stand alongside you in the middle of the storm, even if He doesn’t stop it (the storm). ~Julie Fisk, One Good Word a Day

Hospitality
Cheerfully share your home with those who need a meal or a place to stay. 1 Peter 4:9 11/19/24
“Hospitality is defined not only as inviting in friends, but also strangers….to be willing to open our homes and our lives to those around us. Lord, give each one of us a heart’s desire to be hospitable toward those we come in contact with, inviting them into our spaces cheerfully and sharing Your love with them. Amen”. ~Kendra Roehl, One Good Word a Day

Behold
And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord Who is the Spirit. 2 Corinthians 3:18 11/20/24
“As God’s children, we have the ability to see Him face-to-face. The word “behold” is used in the Bible to draw the reader’s attention (“Look!”). But in 2 Corinthians 3:18, the Greek word for behold, katoptrizo, means to reflect as a mirror. When an infant looks at its caregiver, it finds its identity in that gaze. Similarly, when we behold Jesus, we find ourselves reflected - with love - in His gaze. As we behold God’s glory, we are able to reflect Him more and more. And when we do, we become more like Him, able to extend that same grace and love to others.” ~Kristin Demery, One Good Word a Day

Taste
Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. James 1:17 11/21/24
“When we see something breathtakingly beautiful, when a food explodes in delightful flavors across our tongues, when we snuggle into an extra warm blanket on a cool evening, when we hear something that makes our souls sing, we categorize it as a little taste of heaven. Our declarations are an expression of gratitude, a simple acknowledgment that all good things are gifts from God, regardless of whether they are actually in heaven or not.” ~Julie Fisk, One Good Word a Day

Yet
Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will be joyful in God my Savior. Habakkuk 3:17-18 11/22/24
“How do I hold on to hope in all of the unknowns of life? All of the unanswered prayers?…I believe the answer lies in our “yet.” Yet will I rejoice. Yet will I remember God is my Savior. Yet will I have hope.” ~Kendra Roehl, One Good Word a Day
