"Glory to God in the highest heaven, and peace on earth to those with whom God is pleased." ~ Luke 2:14 NLT
Dearly beloved by God, may your spirit receive this blessing from God’s Word. Beloved, be blessed to come daily to Jesus Christ with an open heart. From his abundance, you are promised one gracious blessing after another. (Jn.1:16) Jesus knows about all the trials and hardships of the past year. He was there with you. Be blessed to release them to him, along with all the regrets and frustration that may have hidden themselves in your heart. Make room for his good gifts. Be blessed as you surrender every part of your life to your Lord and Savior. Then expect him to fill the void made there with his unending love and peace. Stop and receive it. Allow the Holy Spirit to cause your spiritual ears to hear God’s voice ever more clearly and to open your eyes to see into the spiritual realm. There you will be blessed to experience God’s special love for you. You belong to him and he belongs to you. He knows you and knows exactly what you need. Dear one, as you discern more of God’s work in and around you, receive the blessing of his spirit of gratitude that opens the door to receive his peace and the strength to endure and persevere through any hardship. Receive the gift of thanksgiving, and do not doubt, as you recognize blessings designed uniquely for you. Our loving heavenly Father is the life-giver and the source of all light. As his adopted daughter, be blessed to live as a child of the light. Allow his life to shine in and through you. His light is meant to shine in the darkness, and the darkness can never extinguish it. (Jn.1:5) Be increasingly blessed the more you align with God, his time and timing, his plans and desires for your life. You have been given goodness, compassion and wisdom so you can plant them like seeds where his Spirit directs you. Be blessed to believe God will water the seeds, causing them to grow and multiply, producing a rich harvest for many. May you reap the full benefits of his mercy and increasing favor. Highly valued daughter, wherever God leads you know that Jesus is with you, and in seeking him along the way, your life will overflow with blessings. God’s goodness and unfailing love will pursue you all the days of your life. (Ps.23:5,6) Be blessed in the name of the gentle, merciful Son who came so that you might have new life. Amen.
