God is not a man, that he might lie,
or a son of man, that he might change his mind.

A Prayer

Heavenly Father, I praise Your matchless name. You are unlike anything in this world. I am grateful that You are not like man. You don’t lie. You don’t fail. You are good. You are Holy. Your mercy endures forever. Father, when my mind places limitations on You, help me to see You rightly. Help me to recognize more of Your character and promises fulfilled. In the name of Jesus, Amen.

Advent Reflections – Even in the Waiting – Day 2

I have been lost a time or two. Usually, because I got distracted and wandered off the intended path. Whatever sparked my interest was enough to cause me to lose sight of my intended destination. In this passage, we find Jesus as a child, so focused on His Father’s business that he wanders off from his parents.
