TRUTH: Jesus’ presence allows us to be at peace!

1. Enjoy the moment
Luke 2:19 :: But Mary treasured up all these things, pondering them in her heart.

2. Engage the experience
Luke 2:20 :: And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen, as it had been told them.


What does this mean for me?

1. Look for the good
Jeremiah 29:11 :: For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.

2. Relax
Matthew 6:34 :: Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.

3. Give Thanks
Colossians 3:17 :: And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
