Psalm 51:12

Because of his sins against God, David felt great sadness. His heart ached over the hurt he caused the Lord, his soul heavy with depression. For as the saying goes “nothing causes the cup of joy to spring a leak faster than sin.” David was indeed drinking from an empty cup. His joy replaced with grief over his broken relationship with God. And so he cried out desperately for the Lord to restore the joy of his salvation. Are you in a season of sadness? Are you, like David seeking the gladness that comes from knowing you are deeply loved, wanted, and forgiven by God? Go to Him. Because when we come before the Lord with a heart that is truly sorry and repentant, He forgives, restores, and welcomes us back with open arms. Until we are called home, we will continue to make mistakes. But God is bigger than any sin, and His forgiveness is never ending. And when we, like David, return to the Lord, walking in obedience, love, and gratitude, God is faithful. He promises to heal our hearts, renew our spirits, and overflow our spirits with joy!

Hebrews 13:8

Each January 1st carries with it the excitement of a clean slate, a fresh start, and a new beginning. It marks the start of another year filled with the certainty of love and loss, triumph and tragedy, and joy and sorrow. Yet no matter what 2024 may hold, whatever change this new year ushers in, we can rest assured that the one thing we can count on to always remain the same is Jesus. For the Lord we serve is constant in His character, love, and promises. So as we step into the unknown of a new year, we find comfort in the unchanging nature of our Creator. Who is a source of stability in the midst of life’s transitions. It is in this steadfast assurance that we discover courage, hope, and the unwavering certainty that God’s faithfulness will accompany us through every moment of the coming year. With thankful hearts we see His loving promises endure. Offering a steadfast foundation on which we can build our hopes, dreams, and aspirations for the days ahead.
