Holidays With Jesus: Christmas預覽

Christmas is such a fun, amazing time! But due to life events, Christmas can be a sad or stressful time, too!

I love Jesus for so many reasons, but one of my favorite attributes of His is that He is truly a Wonderful Counselor!

When I go through tough life events, conflict, heartache, stress, or grief, I know without a doubt He is there for me.

If you’re going through a tough situation or a heartbreaking event in life...or you have some past issues you’ve never fully resolved or dealt with, Jesus is there.

He sees what you are going through.

He deeply cares about your heart.

He truly understands.

When we struggle with temptation or sin, God sympathizes with us and holds the power to help us overcome anything.

If you’re experiencing a hardened heart due to heartbreaking or challenging events, Jesus genuinely cares about you! He is willing to heal your heart: to take away a heart of stone and replace it with a new heart that is soft and moldable by Him!

We have a Wonderful Counselor who is caring, loving, kind, and on our side – and He is a genius at healing hearts and lives.

Place your heart and life (and your loved ones’ hearts and lives) in His more than capable hands. He is truly the Wonderful Counselor who genuinely loves and cares about you and your loved ones — completely!

Prayer: “Jesus, I thank You so much for caring not just about my spirit, but also about my heart, mind, will, emotions, and wellness. Please help me to be completely honest with You and myself, so that I can be healed and have a vibrant and right relationship with You at all times. Reveal anything in my heart and life that is displeasing to You, and please reveal to me any area of my life that is holding me back from fully experiencing the best relationship I can have with You. I thank You for being my Wonderful Counselor, the absolute Lover of my soul! Your extravagant love and care is priceless! I love you so much, Jesus! In Your great name I pray, Amen!”

Activity: Today, take some time to get totally real with Jesus. Don’t hold anything back! Fully pour your heart out to Jesus. He literally bends down from Heaven to hear your prayers – all of your joys, concerns, good happenings, life challenges, struggles, and heart’s cries. Jesus is more than willing to bless you with a brand new heart and a brand new spirit, too! All you have to do is ask!
