I love this time of year because it allows me to reflect on how God changed my life, so it never takes me long to thank God for our greatest gift of all 💝

I remember in Bible college, this verse was recognised as God's phone number - that all we needed to remember was to call Him on Jeremiah 333 and He would answer us

This was also intriguing to me. That the God of the Universe - creator of all would have the time, for me, let alone answer my prayers

I would rehearse my prayers out loud before actually ”saying them” to God, because I would think that He didn't hear me until I addressed my words to Him...oh how far He has bought me in our relationship together, but this Scripture still holds true as it did, the first time I read it in that class... God assured Jeremiah that he only had to call to God, and God would answer. It reminds me of Matthew 7:7 as well, but I have found that there is always a part that we play. It's not about whether God will answer you, but whether you believe that God will hear you

For me, it was always the worry that ”God was too busy for me” - the fear of rejection was ugly, and it stopped me many times from calling out to Him, because of the ”what if’s”

Yet, Scripture shows us throughout the Bible that God is ready to answer our prayers, but we have to call out to Him first, and yes, God could take care of every need we will ever have, before we asked for it. But when we ask...when we become vulnerable and smash through that ”what if” we acknowledge that He alone is God and that we need Him, because our weaknesses find His strength

Friends, when we ask something from God, it brings humility to our hearts. It also brings an understanding, that in obedience, and willingness to do what is asked from God, worry is becomes but a fleeting memory. Boldness and courage rises within us, and it is in those times that God reveals things to us, that He will accomplish through us, and then dreams really do become reality

Honestly, there have been many times in my Christian walk when I have simply asked ”why?” to God, before crying in a heap on the floor

We can have a warped reality of how situations should go, even in today's modern world. Yet, persecution looks different to us all. No suffering is equal, due to our unique identities and circumstances, but pain to those individuals might feel the same

The pain we feel is very real, and we can be very quick to judge a person by our expectations of suffering

I know for myself, I have grown in my trials of suffering. Once a blubbering mess, in the same situations, I now know the reality compared to God's Word, and I therefore stand firmly, with Christ. It doesn't make it any more comfortable, but I trust in Him - always

I woke up this morning, with a heavy heart. I felt like there are a few of us today who needed to be encouraged due to their current outlook on life... Friends, Peter mentions suffering a few times in 1 Peter because when he speaks of trials, it's to do with the response of the unbelieving world to God's children. People of faith face such trials when they let God's light shine through them, into the world of darkness. Therefore, trials need to be accepted and embraced (in a way) that it is preparing us for not only what is to come, but ultimately, to meet Christ

The Bible shows us, that trials in life teach us patience (Romans 5:3-4 and James 1:2-3) but also, the circumstances we push through help us to grow and develop into the kind of people who God created us to be

So this morning, I encourage us to keep our eyes on Jesus, but also understand, that we are not alone in this world, and we all face uphill battles to victory

The festivities are well on the way for the Christmas period, and there have been a few times recently that I have heard people say that they can’t wait for the holidays (including myself)
•
People love this time of year because they want to spend time with family, or to take that vacation, or maybe, they love the nostalgia of trying to recreate childhood memories, with their loved ones
•
Yet, whatever the reason, the catchphrase that Christian’s love to say at this time of year is “Jesus is the reason for this season” But, we too can get caught up in the festivities that we honestly forget to spend time with God.
•
How easy is it to start planning the Christmas production at school or church and get caught up with it all? Or we want to rehearse for the Christmas Carols...We also, then, can’t forget to go Christmas shopping...Don't forget wrapping the presents...What about cramming in that last minute coffee with a friend...Or food preparations...the list goes on
•
This morning, I was reading the Bible, and I felt led to the book of James, and the Scripture below came to my mind. So often we are reminded that Jesus is the reason, but we are living at 100-miles-per-hour, to try and get it all done, that although Jesus is in this season, we forget, actually, to breathe with Him
•
Friends, I took the last couple of weeks to breathe and to reflect, but I also asked myself that if I wasn't wanting to draw close to God, then why was I actually doing the things, that I stated were for His glory, in the first place? We always have a choice to put God first
•
This season is all about Jesus, so my prayer today is that, we will spend less time on the stuff that really doesn’t matter, and more time with God. He created us, for Him...that’s it...life can be as straightforward, or as crazy as we allow it to become. But, I want to encourage us to not get too caught up, that before we know it, another season has gone by, and God has become but a distant “to do” list, that the world has (again) taken over our priorities

”Come close to God, and God will come close to you...for your loyalty is divided between God and the world.” James‬ ‭4:8
