Where is your functional trust? Not where you say you trust, but where you go when your back is against the wall. What you depend on when you don’t know what to do. Where do you go when all seems lost? That’s where your trust really is.

“Am I safe?” is one of the greatest and most common questions of the human soul. And the Psalmist wants you to know there’s a safe place for you to abide. Yet what the writer describes in Psalm 91 seems a million miles from safe. There are bird traps, night terror, arrows flying overhead, pestilence, destruction, and yet they’re still safe. How? It’s all about where they decided to trust, where they decided to run to, who they decided to depend on.

They didn’t depend on themselves, a substance, a person, or a provision - but the Protector of the ages, God Almighty. Does God have your trust? You know whether or not He does or doesn’t based not on what you confess, but on where you turn. There is safety in His presence, and you can trust that to always be true.

When life feels unsafe, where do you instinctively run?

Day 3 of 5 devotional: “sacred Moments with Christ”

Treasure, by its very nature, is something so special we keep it safe, right? But there's something of more worth beyond any material or physical treasure. It’s eternal.

It’s Christ! Just like for Mary.

Any treasure, especially this one, is not something you forget; rather, it is something you dwell upon and recall with gratitude and longing. You think about it often. But it’s not hidden in some box or stored away in a bank—it’s hidden in your heart.

Stored, considered, thought about, and cherished with gratitude in the most sacred place you have—your heart.

It’s why Proverbs 4:23 tells us to guard it. Doesn’t that feel similar to a treasure box or bank account? To guard it and keep it safe.

There are two other verses in Scripture with a similar meaning, both in the book of Proverbs: Proverbs 2:1 and 7:1.

“Treasure my commands within you.” (NKJV)

What does this all mean for you today?

You have the greatest treasure in Christ—a life built upon an everlasting Rock that leads to eternal life. It’s the most beautiful love possible.
Hold that love close.
Think about it, meditate on it, and be thankful for it.
The most important thing in the whole world is to keep it in the safest place possible.
How might you treasure the beauty and mystery of Christ in your own life?

God Our Rock

There are hundreds of different names and titles for God throughout Scripture. And since the Psalms were written from various seasons of life, there are many different perspectives of how God acts within those seasons.

Psalm 18 was written at a time when the author, King David, was delivered from his enemies by God.

In this Psalm, David almost immediately calls God his rock—because God was dependable and stable, and there was nothing that could overtake Him. This truth wasn’t just for David, but for everyone who relies on God.

When we belong to God, He is a rock and a fortress in our lives. Everything in this world is constantly shifting, but we belong to a God who never changes. He is our protection from things that seek to harm us.

We belong to a God who is with us and can protect us. Even if we don’t have physical enemies, we can run to God when life gets difficult. That’s why, like David, our response to God should be filled with praise. We need to remember what He's done—so that way we can praise Him for who He is.

Take some time today to thank God for how He's loved, led, and protected you so far in your life. And if you’re currently in a difficult season, run to God and ask Him for help. He is able and willing to be everything you need!

Father God, thank You for being my source of strength. You are here for me no matter what I face, and I’m so grateful I can take refuge in You. Today, help me to come before You humbly and honestly. Give me the courage to surrender my concerns to You, and the faith to trust You with the results. I invite You to be my source of strength—today and forever. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

God Is With You
Play hide and seek with a toddler and you’ll see how they cover their eyes and assume they’re invisible. It’s funny when a child does it, but not so much when we do it with God. We cover ourselves in shame, hoping He can’t see what we see in the mirror.

David confesses: “Where shall I go from your Spirit? Or where shall I flee from your presence?” The answer? Nowhere. Not the highest heaven. Not the deepest grave. Not the darkest night. Not the most hidden secret. Even there—especially there—God is with you.

This is both humbling and healing. Humbling, because it means no sin is hidden. Healing, because it means no wound is abandoned. God’s presence doesn’t evaporate in the heat of your failure. He is Emmanuel, God with us. His nearness is not fragile or based on your performance. It is grounded in His promise.

You may feel unseen. You may feel alone. But faith declares what feelings can’t: you are never out of His reach. The darkness may feel suffocating, but to Him, “the night is as bright as the day.” So remember, just as God was with David, God is with you.

Where do you most struggle to believe God is with you right now?

Day 2 of a 5 day devotional:
“Sacred moments with Christ.” Come back tomorrow, to see what happens next. ❤️

In our second passage in Luke 2, Jesus is a bit older: he's 12. His parents had taken him to Jerusalem, but once they left, it took them a day to realize he had not journeyed back with them. By the time they return to the city and find him, Jesus has been at the temple without his parents for three days.

Mary brings Jesus off to the side and asks him a question: essentially, don’t you know we were a mess not knowing where you were? Why were you here and not with us?

And Jesus gives this powerful response that speaks to the nature of his divinity. He is the Son of the Father, and what he’s saying here is that he is attending to the business for which he was called.

Yet, his mother didn’t understand what he meant. Again, they knew Jesus was the Messiah, but they had no idea how that would play out. Perhaps they thought his path would look much different—a palace rather than a temple.

But even in the mystery, again, Mary did something special: she treasured up all these things in her heart.

Tomorrow, we will look at this idea of treasuring something or someone in our heart. Today, reflect on your understanding of who Christ is, what he accomplished on earth, and how that affects how you live your life with a Kingdom mindset.

Love Like Jesus

From friendships to family members to coworkers, relationships can be tough to navigate. But if there’s one thing that can set your relationships apart, it’s understanding real love.

In Paul’s first letter to the believers in Corinth, Greece, he explains that even if you have all the faith, all the knowledge, or all the generosity in the world, or if you can speak in tongues or have the gift of prophecy—none of it means anything without love. He continues:

Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up;
I Corinthians 13:4 NKJV

Chances are, you want to be a patient person. You intend to be a kind human. You desire to be a content and humble individual. But sometimes you get in a hurry. Sometimes you get annoyed. Sometimes you can be rude, selfish, jealous, unthoughtful, or arrogant.

Sometimes, it’s hard being human. But God knows that—and He wants to help us.

In the same letter, Paul goes on to say that love keeps no record of wrongs and rejoices in the truth. It always protects, trusts, hopes, and perseveres. Most notably, love never fails.

But why does love seem to fail at times? After all, divorce rates are high, estranged families are commonplace, and the brokenness of this world is evident on just about every news broadcast or social media feed.

That’s exactly why Jesus came! He offered Himself as the ultimate sacrifice for the redemption of the world. And that’s what real love looks like—to lay down one’s life for one’s friends (John 15:13). He is love, and His love never fails.

So, now that redemption has begun to break through—first through Jesus and, now, through His Spirit inside of us—we can love others well by looking to Him, leaning on Him, trusting in Him, listening to Him, and following his lead.

God has given you everything you need to love others the way He's loved you.

Heavenly Father,
You are the model of unconditional love. Please help me to extend the love You've given me to others. I want to be patient and kind, humble and loving—so that others will want to know You. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

We are stepping into this really beautiful season when we remember Christ, the very center of our universe. During this time of reflection, I keep coming back to Luke 2.

It’s the story of Mary, the mother of Jesus. Twice in the chapter, we get this beautiful glimpse into her life. It’s intimate and personal. It almost feels like we shouldn’t know what we do about her in those moments, but it’s there for a reason, and that’s what I want to uncover with you today.

In Luke 2, we see two different stories but one singular idea:

Mary treasured and pondered.

What we’re going to see in the text is an element of mystery. Mary and Joseph already knew who Jesus was; his divinity was clear. But up until this point, it had been a small circle who knew the truth.

Now, they started seeing these confirmations of what they knew. And yet, it still caused wonder.

•How did the story from the shepherds fit into a bigger narrative? How far would the story go?
•What would this mean for their family if word spread?
•What would their son’s life look like?

The text highlights that you can hold space for faith and confidence in God’s Word but still live in the mystery and wonder that is inevitable in our walk. The question is, what do we do with that?

Mary, in verse 19, did two things:

1.) She treasured what she was beholding,
2.) And she pondered them in her heart.

We'll explore that further, but for today, set aside time to consider what this might mean and look like in your everyday life.
