God’s Love, through Grace, given by the perfect Gift 🎁, of Jesus, accepted by childlike faith, in the midst of difficult circumstances, accepting God’s Provision and Providence!
“Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: when His mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child by the Holy Spirit. And Joseph her husband, being a righteous man and not wanting to disgrace her, planned to send her away secretly. But when he had considered this, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife; for the Child who has been conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. She will bear a Son; and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins.” Now all this took place to fulfill what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet: “Behold, the virgin shall be with child and shall bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel,” which translated means, “God with us.” And Joseph awoke from his sleep and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took Mary as his wife, but kept her a virgin until she gave birth to a Son; and he called His name Jesus.”
Matthew 1:18-25 NASB1995
Joy, vs (Happiness or Sadness).
Father, help us,to not look at our circumstances, to feel Happiness or Sadness, but to find Joy, in walking through, through both the agony of defeat, and the thrill of victory. Help us to continuing, to fix our eyes on Jesus, who shows us the way, through both, and to ultimate Victory, in the midst of our circumstances.

Do you read this verse rejoice sometimes vs always. It’s easy to apply this verse when things are good, but the Apostle Paul clearly makes clear, earlier in the book of Philippians, that our circumstances should not dictate our joy. How are you doing with this today? Can I pray for you, for something? Better yet, let your request be made known to God, but please reach for joy, no matter what!

The Battle belongs to the Lord. He goes before us to, if we don’t charge ahead on our own.

In the book of Joshua, he says Do Not Fear. I go before you in the battle. I will give you the Victory. He has declared victory in Jesus, through his perfect life, his death and resurrection. The victory has been won, over sin and death. We are are victorious through Jesus, both now and for all eternity, to those who believe. Do you believe? Lets shout it from the rooftops. Good news, indeed.
We are free from the curse of the law forever, to those who receive freely, the gift of grace by faith alone. Our works to earn salvation,will only bring stress & worry, because only Jesus was able to fulfill the law and set us FREE! Won’t you turn to him today? He is waiting.

Peace to you and your family, today.
www.bible.com/100/rom.15.13.Our Hope, is in you Lord! There is no other God besides you. You give access to yourself through Jesus, through his death and resurrection, that took away the weigh of our own wicked hearts, through his sacrifice. This is good news to those through all those striving to earn their access to you. You give it freely, to all who believe. Won’t you consider this wonderful gift of life today, if you have not yet. That would be my prayer, both for you and your family. May the Peace of God through his Holy Spirit, fill you today!
