Matthew 24:7-8

I am intrigued by the miracle of life formed at conception. Scientists have discovered that light happens at that moment—the moment life happens, there is light! This is another reminder of the power of Christ's Resurrection. That same power will one day bring us into His everlasting Light! As we reflect on the Light and the Life of the World, may we live as if it is Easter daily!

In this five-day devotional, read Scripture alongside passages adapted from Labor With Hope: Gospel Meditations on Pregnancy, Childbirth, and Motherhood by Gloria Furman that speak of limitless power and strength that Christ offers to all who rely on him, enabling women to truly labor with hope.

We all face difficult circumstances, culture clashes, and personal struggles. Life can be like fighting in a battle. This is a devotional series that will encourage and strengthen you for the spiritual battles you will face in life.

God wants to prepare us to thrive as we approach the time when Jesus will return. We do not have to fear the future, but we must not be surprised by it or unprepared to face it. God is able to bring us into our true destiny. The more we know and love Him, the greater our strength and hope.
