The holidays are a time to celebrate hope, and there's nothing greater than the hope God brings with the birth of Jesus.
In the story of Martha and Mary, we can learn from Jesus how prioritizing our relationships with God and people can truly make us happy.
Get inspired about how much can happen when we read and remember Scripture
By digging down deep, we start the process toward having a faith in God that is not easily shaken. However, depth takes work. It is not a personality trait or a natural talent, but rather a skill that must be worked at and developed over time.
Though in the moment our difficulties may feel like they are too much we can handle, God uses them as opportunities for us to grow.
When we live in denial of what we are struggling with or having a hard time overcoming, we get stuck, settle, and are never able to do the impossible God is ready to help us achieve.
When we get “used” to being a Christian and know what the Bible says, we end up reading and analyzing the Scriptures without seeing God for who he is. The power and hope the scriptures talk about only comes with a real and engaging relationship with God.
