Isaiah 9:6 is one of the most used passages of scripture especially during the advent season. As we look at the time and context this was written, we will see a hope filled prophecy in the midst of a societal upheaval and captivity. But the one who is coming, brings a new, unimaginable Kingdom. And when we discover more of this King, we discover more of who we are: sons and daughters of God.

There is only one problem on which all my existence, my peace and my happiness depend: To discover myself in discovering God. If I find Him, I will find myself and if I find my true self, I will find Him. — Thomas Merton

Isaiah 9:6

A Godly friend is a gift at all times. One such friend sent these truths as a Christmas blessing. Spend some time reading these verses and allowing them to read into your soul.  Worship in response to the truths of who Jesus is and what He has done for you.  

Psalms 46:1
Zephaniah 3:17
Lamentations 3:22-24
Jeremiah 31:3
Matthew 11:28
Romans 5:6-8
Isaiah 43:1-3
1 John 3:1

Write down as many truths as you can that bring restoration and hope to your soul.  What do you discover about yourself?  About God? Who needs to hear what you are discovering as encouragement in their journey.  Be ready to speak life to them as you live and move this week.   Merry Christmas!
