Manna for Your Morning

All of this is a gift from our Creator God, who has pursued us and brought us into a restored and healthy relationship with Him through the Anointed. And He has given us the same mission, the ministry of reconciliation, to bring others back to Him. It is central to our good news that God was in the Anointed making things right between Himself and the world. This means He does not hold their sins against them. But it also means He charges us to proclaim the message that heals and restores our broken relationships with God and each other. — 2 Corinthians 5:18-19 (VOICE) If we want our horizontal relationships with other people (spouse, siblings, extended family members, friends, co-workers, etc) to be healthy and harmonious, we must get the one vertical, foundational relationship with God in alignment first. If someone claims, “I love God,” but hates his brother or sister, then he is a liar. Anyone who does not love a brother or sister, whom he has seen, cannot possibly love God, whom he...

“I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things in the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star.” And the Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let him who hears say, “Come!” And let him who thirsts come. Whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely. — Revelation 22:16-17 (NKJV) The call of Yeshua is for us to come to Him. He gives freely to all who desire. Eternal One: If you are thirsty, come here; come, there’s water for all. Whoever is poor and penniless can still come and buy the food I sell. There’s no cost—here, have some food, hearty and delicious, and beverages, pure and good. I don’t understand why you spend your money for things that don’t nourish or work so hard for what leaves you empty. Attend to Me and eat what is good; enjoy the richest, most delectable of things. Listen closely, and come even closer. My words will give life, for I will make a covenant with you that cannot be broken, a promise of My enduring ...

So the dragon became enraged at the woman and went off to make war with the rest of her offspring—those who keep the commandments of God and hold to the testimony of Yeshua. — Revelation 12:17 (TLV) You therefore must endure hardship as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. No one engaged in warfare entangles himself with the affairs of this life, that he may please him who enlisted him as a soldier. (2 Timothy 2:3-4 NKJV) Put on the full armor of God, so that you are able to stand against the schemes of the devil. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the worldly forces of this darkness, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore, take up the full armor of God, so that you may be able to resist when the times are evil, and after you have done everything, to stand firm. (Ephesians 6:11-13 TLV) But thanks be to God, who keeps giving us the victory through our Lord Yeshua the Messiah!  — 1...

Let the peace of Christ [the inner calm of one who walks daily with Him] be the controlling factor in your hearts [deciding and settling questions that arise]. To this peace indeed you were called as members in one body [of believers]. And be thankful [to God always]. — Colossians 3:15 (AMP) What are the controlling factors in your life? Do you let external circumstances steal your peace? Walk daily with the Prince of Peace and maintain that inner calm that comes from knowing that He is the King of kings and the Lord of lords. He is the answer to every question and the solution to all your problems. No challenge is too difficult for Him. Troubles will come, but in Yeshua you can take courage and have peace, because He has overcome the world. (See John 16:33) Trust God, and let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, no matter what situation arises. For this reason God highly exalted Him and gave Him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Yeshua every knee should bow, ...

Through the LORD’s mercies we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness. “The LORD is my portion,” says my soul, “Therefore I hope in Him!” — Lamentations 3:22-24 (NKJV) It is because of the lovingkindness of Yahweh that we are not consumed. His tender compassions never fail. We receive fresh new mercies every morning. God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our LORD. (1 Corinthians 1:9 NKJV) No one can measure His faithfulness. It endures to all generations; (See Psalms 119:90 NKJV) He stands with you when everyone else has abandoned you. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” (See Hebrews 13:5 NKJV) Keep your hope in Him. I will sing of the mercies of the LORD forever; With my mouth will I make known Your faithfulness to all generations. — Psalms 89:1 (NKJV)

“Beloved friend, I pray that you are prospering in every way and that you continually enjoy good health, just as your soul is prospering.” — 3 John 1:2 (TPT)  May you succeed and prosper in all areas of your life, physically, spiritually, in all of your relationships, in your career, ministry, etc. Joshua 1:8 (NKJV) tells us how: This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success. But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and in His law he meditates day and night. He shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth its fruit in its season, whose leaf also shall not wither; and whatever he does shall prosper. (Psalms 1:2-3 NKJV)

In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. — 1 John 4:10 (NKJV) And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent the Son as Savior of the world. (1 John 4:14 NKJV) For God did not send the Son into the world to judge and condemn the world [that is, to initiate the final judgment of the world], but that the world might be saved through Him. (John 3:17 AMP) The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. (See John 10:10a) However, 1 John 3:8 (NKJV) says: The Son of God appeared for this purpose, to destroy the works of the devil. Yeshua came that we may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance [to the full, till it overflows]. (See John 10:10b AMP) For everyone born of God is victorious and overcomes the world; and this is the victory that has conquered and overcome the world—our [continuing, persistent] faith [in Jesus the Son of God]. (1 John 5:4 AMP) He is our only hope. (See John 6:68 ...

All this will flow from the kind and compassionate mercy of our God. A new day is dawning: the Sunrise from the heavens will break through in our darkness, and those who huddle in night, those who sit in the shadow of death, will be able to rise and walk in the light, guided in the pathway of peace. — Luke 1:78-79 (VOICE) Yeshua came as a light into the world, that whoever believes in Him should no longer abide in darkness. (See John 12:46) Rise and walk for the light of Yeshua illuminates the path that leads to peace and truth. He is the true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world. (See John 1:9) In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men. The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. (John 1:4-5 NASB1995) And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. (John 3:19 NKJV) The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, ...

Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal among you, which comes upon you for your testing, as though some strange thing were happening to you; — 1 Peter 4:12 (NASB1995) Second Timothy 3:12-13 (NASB1995) says: Indeed, all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will be persecuted. But evil men and impostors will proceed from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived. But we are not to get discouraged, nor be afraid. The Lord is faithful to stand with us and strengthen us. (See 1 Timothy 3:17)  The apostle Paul received thirty-nine lashes from the Jews, five times. Three times he was beaten with rods, once he was stoned, three times he was shipwrecked. On frequent journeys, he was in dangers from rivers, robbers, from his own countrymen and from the Gentiles, in dangers in the city, in the wilderness, and on the sea, and in dangers among false brethren. (See 2 Corinthians 11:24-26) In spite of all these things, the apostle Paul reminds us that God is faithful to rescue us. ...

By faith they passed through the Red Sea as though they were passing through dry land; and the Egyptians, when they attempted it, were drowned. — Hebrews 11:29 (NASB1995) In rescuing His people from slavery, God led the people around by way of the wilderness of the Red Sea. (See Exodus 13:18) What looked like defeat to them, God had already planned for victory. Whatever you may be going through today, just keep putting one foot in front of the other, making each step, a step of faith. In your darkest moments, know that Yahweh is with you and He is able to bring you through to the other side. For with Yahweh is the fountain of life and in His light we see light. (See Psalms 36:9) Stay on the path Yahweh has laid before you. On that path is His protection and His provision. “Even when your path takes me through the valley of deepest darkness, fear will never conquer me, for you already have! Your authority is my strength and my peace. The comfort of your love takes away my fear. I’ll nev...

and since we have a great and wonderful Priest [Who rules] over the house of God, let us approach [God] with a true and sincere heart in unqualified assurance of faith, having had our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water. — Hebrews 10:21-22 (AMP) Let us seize and hold tightly the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is reliable and trustworthy and faithful [to His word]; (Hebrews 10:23 AMP) Therefore do not cast away your confidence, which has great reward. For you have need of patient endurance [to bear up under difficult circumstances without compromising], so that when you have carried out the will of God, you may receive and enjoy to the full what is promised. For yet in a very little while, He who is coming will come, and will not delay. (See Hebrews 10:35-37 NKJV/AMP) Instead of being like those who turn away from God to their own destruction, draw near to Him with a faithful and sincere heart. But as for me...

You are my hiding place; You preserve me from trouble; You surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah. — Psalms 32:7 (NASB1995) He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say to the LORD, “My refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust!” (Psalm 91:1-2 NASB1995) Be gracious to me, O God, be gracious and merciful to me, for my soul finds shelter and safety in You, and in the shadow of Your wings I will take refuge and be confidently secure until destruction passes by. (Psalms 57:1 AMP) How precious is Your lovingkindness, O God! And the sons of men take refuge in the shadow of Your wings. (Psalms 36:7 LSB) Because You have been my help, therefore in the shadow of Your wings I will rejoice. (Psalms 63:7 NKJV)

“He will be your constant source of stability in changing times, and out of his abundant love he gives you the riches of salvation, wisdom, and knowledge. Yes, the fear of the Lord is the key to this treasure!” — Isaiah 33:6 (TPT)

 The conditions and state of this world consistently fluctuate. However, Yahweh is the One constant. In Malachi 3:6 (LSB) He says: “I, Yahweh, do not change;” Our Everlasting God remains the same, and He shows no partiality. He is a good, good Father. In His abundant love, He always takes care of His children. Return to your rest, O my soul, for Yahweh has dealt bountifully with you. For You have rescued my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling. I shall walk before Yahweh in the land of the living. (Psalms 116:7-9 LSB)  I have set Yahweh continually before me; Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken. — Psalms 16:8 (LSB)

“Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel,” which is translated, “God with us.” — Matthew 1:23 (NKJV) No matter what you are going through, remember, God is with you. For in Christ lives all the fullness of God in a human body. (Colossians 2:9 NLT) When you go through deep waters, He will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown. When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you. (See Isaiah 43:2 NLT) Don’t fear nor be discouraged because God is with you. He will strengthen you and help you. Surely, He will hold you up with His victorious right hand. (See Isaiah 41:10) Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in every place. — 2 Corinthians 2:14 (NLT)

Cling to your faith in Christ, and keep your conscience clear. For some people have deliberately violated their consciences; as a result, their faith has been shipwrecked. — 1 Timothy 1:19 (NLT) Don’t suffer shipwreck in regard to your faith. Anchor your hope in Yeshua. Continue to pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, perseverance and gentleness. Fight the good fight of faith; take hold of the eternal life to which you were called… (See 1 Timothy 6:11-12 NASB1995) Stay on course and finish the race, and through it all, keep believing. (See 2 Timothy 4:7 VOICE) “We have this certain hope like a strong, unbreakable anchor holding our souls to God himself. Our anchor of hope is fastened to the mercy seat in the heavenly realm beyond the sacred threshold, and where Jesus, our forerunner, has gone in before us. He is now and forever our royal Priest like Melchizedek.” (Hebrews 6:19-20 TPT) He is the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords. (See 1 Timothy 6:1...

Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice! — Philippians 4:4 (NKJV) How can we maintain a continually joyful attitude? By practicing Philippians 2:14 (NKJV): ...do all things without complaining and disputing. And by abiding in our Lord and Savior, King Yeshua. He says: “I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” He will never leave us nor forsake us. Ecclesiastes 11:8 (NASB1995) says: Indeed, if a man should live many years, let him rejoice in them all, and let him remember the days of darkness, for they will be many. Even when we are walking through those dark valleys, we can be joyful that Yeshua is with us, and He has already overcome the world. Psalms 5:11 (AMP) says: let all who take refuge and put their trust in the LORD rejoice, let them ever sing for joy; because He covers and shelters us, let those who love His name be joyful and exult in Him. May we worship God in the Spirit, rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh. (See Philippians ...

God placed all things under Messiah’s feet and appointed Him as head over all things for His community — — Ephesians 1:22 (TLV) ...[in His love] God chose us in Christ [actually selected us for Himself as His own] before the foundation of the world, so that we would be holy [that is, consecrated, set apart for Him, purpose-driven] and blameless in His sight… (See Ephesians 1:4 AMP) …we, being many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another. (Romans 12:5 NKJV) We have been chosen and called by God, with a purpose and good plans. We are complete in Him who is the head of all principality and power. (See Colossians 2:10 NKJV) Let us be led by Christ, the head of the church, He Himself being the Savior of the body. (See Ephesians 5:23) So I, the prisoner for the Lord, appeal to you to live a life worthy of the calling to which you have been called [that is, to live a life that exhibits godly character, moral courage, personal integrity, and mature behavior—a life that...

Dear brothers and sisters, when troubles of any kind come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy. — James 1:2 (NLT) We can consider it all joy when we encounter various trials, knowing that the testing of our faith produces endurance. And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. (See James 1:3-4 NASB1995) We can maintain our joy by looking not at the temporary circumstances which are seen but at the eternal things which are not seen. (See 2 Corinthians 4:18) For momentary, light affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory far beyond all comparison (2 Corinthians 4:17 NASB1995) We do this by focusing on Yeshua, the initiator and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before Him, He endured the cross, disregarding its shame; and He has taken His seat at the right hand of the throne of God. (See Hebrews 12:2 TLV) Don't let the enemy steal your joy.  “Your hearts can soar with joyful gratitude when you t...

If anyone serves Me, he must follow Me; and where I am, there My servant will be also; if anyone serves Me, the Father will honor him. — John 12:26 (NASB1995) If we are to serve Yeshua, we MUST continue to faithfully follow Him, without hesitation, holding steadfastly to Him… (See John 12:26 AMP) We are not to conform to the behavior and customs of this world. Nor live in the lusts of our flesh, indulging the desires of the flesh. Galatians 5:24 (TLV) says: Now those who belong to Messiah have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world. (1 John 2:16 NASB1995)  In the way of righteousness is life, and in its pathway there is no death. (Proverbs 12:28 NASB1995) Psalms 16:8 (NASB1995) says: “I have set the LORD continually before me; Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.” He will direct you on the path that ...

Then Jacob departed from Beersheba and went toward Haran. And he reached a certain place and spent the night there because the sun had set; and he took one of the stones of the place and put it under his head and lay down in that place. Then Jacob awoke from his sleep and said, “Surely Yahweh is in this place, and I did not know it.” — Genesis 28:10-11, 16 (LSB) In Jacob's dream, God said, “I am Yahweh, the God of your father Abraham and the God of Isaac… Behold, I am with you and will keep you wherever you go. And I will bring you back to this land; for I will not forsake you until I have done what I have promised you.” (See Genesis 28:13, 15) Today, He is with us. Whatever place you are in, remember Yahweh is in that place with you. You are never alone. No matter what situation or circumstance you are facing, you too can declare: “Surely Yahweh is in this place!” Wherever you go, His hand will guide you and His strength will empower you. (See Psalms 139:10 TPT) Always be aware o...

But Jesus said to him, “No one, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.” — Luke 9:62 (NKJV) In Luke 17:32, Yeshua said: “Remember Lot’s wife.” In Genesis 19:17, Lot was warned by one of the angels who took his family out of Sodom, “Escape for your life! Do not look behind you…” But his wife, from behind him, looked back, and she became a pillar of salt. (See Genesis 19:26) Brethren, I do not regard myself as having laid hold of it yet; but one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, have this attitude… (Philippians 3:13-15 NASB1995) No looking back. Yahweh is calling us to a higher level and a deeper walk.

Now after John was put in jail, Yeshua came into the Galilee, proclaiming the Good News of God. “Now is the fullness of time,” He said, “and the kingdom of God is near! Turn away from your sins, and believe in the Good News!” — Mark 1:14-15 (TLV) “I assure you and most solemnly say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God [with faith and humility] like a child will not enter it at all.” (Luke 18:17 AMP) “For the Kingdom of God is not a matter of what we eat or drink, but of living a life of goodness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.” (Romans 14:17 NLT) Citizens of the Kingdom of God, practice righteousness (doing right in regard to God and man), and are full of peace and joy, abiding in and being led by the Holy Spirit. “We comfort and encourage you and challenge you to adopt a lifestyle worthy of God, who invites you into his kingdom and glory.” (See 1 Thessalonians 2:12 TPT) “Blessed [spiritually prosperous, happy, to be admired] are you who are poor [in spirit, those...

Yeshua said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life! No one comes to the Father except through Me. — John 14:6 (TLV) There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death. “You can rationalize it all you want and justify the path of error you have chosen, but you’ll find out in the end that you took the road to destruction.” (Proverbs‬ ‭14‬:‭12‬ ‭NKJV & TPT‬‬) Yeshua said He was THE way to the Father. He didn’t say He was one of many ways to Abba Father. Do not be deceived, Yeshua is the only way to the Father. We have seen and testify that the Father has sent His Son as Savior of the world. (1 John 4:14 TLV)  Yeshua, our Messiah is the truth. In John 8:32 (TLV) Yeshua says:  “You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free!” Yeshua has set us free from the law of sin and death. (See Romans 8:2) The truth of the LORD endures forever. (See Psalms 117:2 NKJV) Choose the way of truth. Yeshua is the resurrection and the life! In Him we are ...

Yet even in the midst of all these things, we triumph over them all, for God has made us to be more than conquerors, and his demonstrated love is our glorious victory over everything!” — Romans 8:37 (TPT) Whenever you are in the midst of troubles, trials and tribulations, remember that children of God triumph over all these things. Yeshua overcame the world and in Him, we too are overcomers. “So, what does all this mean? If God has determined to stand with us, tell me, who then could ever stand against us?” (Romans 8:31 TPT) “Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in every place.” (2 Corinthians 2:14 NKJV) For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. — Romans 8:18 (NKJV)

“He did not waver at the promise of God through unbelief, but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God, and being fully convinced that what He had promised He was also able to perform.” — Romans 4:20-21 (NKJV) Like Abraham, may we never doubt the promises of Yahweh. …for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. (See James 1:6 NKJV) Then we will no longer be like children, forever changing our minds about what we believe because someone has told us something different or has cleverly lied to us and made the lie sound like the truth. (Ephesians 4:14 TLB) Let us seize and hold tightly the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is reliable and trustworthy and faithful [to His word]; (Hebrews 10:23 AMP) He actively watches over His word to fulfill it. (See Jeremiah 1:12 AMP) Let your faith grow strong, and be confident that He is able.  “...with God all things are possible.” (See Matthew 19:26) ‘Ah Lord GOD! Behold, You have...

For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek. For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “The just shall live by faith.” — Romans 1:16-17 (NKJV) “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.” (John 3:16 NASB1995) Let us live by faith in the Son of God, who loved us and gave Himself up for us. (See Galatians 2:20)  May we walk by faith, not by sight [living our lives in a manner consistent with our confident belief in God’s promises]— (See 2 Corinthians 5:7 AMP)  Habakkuk 2:4 (AMP) says: the righteous will live by his faith [in the true God]. And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who draws near to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him. (Hebrews 11:6 LSB) Test and evaluate yourselves t...

However, “Let him who boasts boast in the LORD.” — 2 Corinthians 10:17 (AMP) Thus says Yahweh, “Let not a wise man boast in his wisdom, and let not the mighty man boast in his might; let not a rich man boast in his riches, but let him who boasts boast in this, that he understands and knows Me, that I am Yahweh who shows lovingkindness, justice, and righteousness on earth; for I delight in these things,” declares Yahweh. (Jeremiah 9:23-24 LSB)  Some boast in chariots and some in horses, but we will boast in the name of Yahweh, our God. (Psalms 20:7 LSB) For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things have been created through Him and for Him. (Colossians 1:6 NASB1995) May we seek to understand and know Yahweh. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are His ways higher than our ways and His thoughts than our thoughts. (See Isaiah 55:9)  My soul will make i...

The LORD also will be a refuge and a stronghold for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble; And those who know Your name [who have experienced Your precious mercy] will put their confident trust in You, for You, O LORD, have not abandoned those who seek You. — Psalms 9:9-10 (AMP) Yahweh is our refuge, a shelter Who keeps us safe from danger. He is our stronghold, a place that has been fortified so as to protect those within it against attack. When the enemy attempts to bombard your mind with lies, you can protect your mind by renewing it with the Word of God. When you keep your mind stayed on God, He will keep you in perfect peace, because you trust in Him. (See Isaiah 26:3 NKJV) He who abides in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say to Yahweh, “My refuge and my fortress, My God, in whom I trust!” For it is He who delivers you from the snare of the trapper and from the destructive pestilence. (Psalms 91:1-3 LSB) In peace [and with a tran...

“Brothers and sisters, you need to know about the severe trials we experienced… All of the hardships we passed through crushed us beyond our ability to endure, and we were so completely overwhelmed that we were about to give up entirely. It felt like we had a death sentence written upon our hearts, and we still feel it to this day. It has taught us to lose all faith in ourselves and to place all of our trust in the God who raises the dead.” — 2 Corinthians 1:8-9 (TPT) When you are burdened excessively and overwhelmed, do not give up. When you come to the end of what you can do, give it to God. Place all of your trust in Yahweh, who is able to bring the dead back to life. Our sufficiency is from God. (See 2 Corinthians 3:5 NKJV) We may be pressed on every side by troubles, but we are not completely crushed by them. We may be perplexed at times, but we do not have to give in to despair. We know that God knows what to do. We may be hunted down, but we are never abandoned by God. We may g...

Three things will last forever—faith, hope, and love—and the greatest of these is love. — 1 Corinthians 13:13 (NLT) Love is large and incredibly patient. Love is gentle and consistently kind to all. It refuses to be jealous when blessing comes to someone else. Love does not brag about one’s achievements nor inflate its own importance. Love does not traffic in shame and disrespect, nor selfishly seek its own honor. Love is not easily irritated or quick to take offense. (1 Corinthians 13:4-5 TPT) Love is “kind to all ,” not just those who agree with our opinions, and conform to our ways. “Love joyfully celebrates honesty and finds no delight in what is wrong. Love is a safe place of shelter, for it never stops believing the best for others. Love never takes failure as defeat, for it never gives up.” (1 Corinthians 13:6-7 TPT) Be that safe place for others. Real love endures through every circumstance. Love lasts forever, not just in the month of December. Love continually, every month ...
