Christmas lights may be removed from tree boughs and stored until next year. But, the Advent lights of Christmas–Hope, Peace, Joy, Love fueled by Faith–may remain within our hearts throughout the days ahead. May these verses illuminate 2014’s journey.
How blessed is the man who has made the Lord his trust,
And has not turned to the proud, nor to those who lapse into falsehood.
When I am afraid,
I will put my trust in You.
In God, whose word I praise,
In God I have put my trust;
I shall not be afraid.
What can mere man do to me?
“The steadfast of mind You will keep in perfect peace,
Because he trusts in You.
“Trust in the Lord forever,
For in God the Lord, we have an everlasting Rock.
Trust in Him at all times, O people;
Pour out your heart before Him;
God is a refuge for us. Selah.
