Negative thoughts about ourselves can be debilitating and discouraging
God's thoughts are higher than and completely different from ours
Thinking about others is a deliberate choice, and it’s the most inspiring way we can live our lives.
In our moments of frustration and failure, we need to turn to God and his Word to find the strength to keep going.
God commands us not to give into our fear and reminds us that he will never fail us.
God wants us to both have our own happy and satisfying life and to help others have an opportunity for that life, too.
The holidays are a time to celebrate hope, and there's nothing greater than the hope God brings with the birth of Jesus.
