Izaija 26:8

For some, Christmas time can be full of grief, tragedy, hurt, and division. Yet Christmas celebrates that God became a human and stepped right into the middle of our hurting, angry, chaotic world to bring us peace—peace among people and, even more importantly, peace with God. Join us this Advent season in looking at the peace brought by Christ.

Your home is not your physical address. Your real home, this side of heaven, is your heart. As a Christian, it’s the most sacred part of your life, where Christ lovingly resides. Contentment is found when Jesus fully occupies every room and holds the keys to your heart. Join me on a journey to transform your heart into a home of comfort, stability, and peace. At home with Him!

What would happen if we focused on one good word each day―one thought-provoking and encouraging word that reveals the truth of who Jesus is in our lives? In their book, One Good Word a Day, The Ruth Experience authors offer simple, deeply spiritual meditations that will help readers linger on one word each day, to reflect on how Jesus as the Word influences our daily lives.

God created you in his image, to love, nurture, and embrace. Reflect on the life-giving invitation of God’s heart, gently whispered each of these seven days. Bring your heart before heaven and receive a message to set you on a path of delightful discovery of how God sees you. Let the whispers from the heart of God quench your thirst and carry you through your days.
