My dear friends, midweek often brings weariness. Responsibilities pile up, our strength feels stretched, and our hearts long for rest. But Advent teaches us something profound: hope often begins with simply lifting our eyes.
The people Isaiah spoke to had spent so long in darkness that they had almost forgotten what light looked like. Yet God did not wait for them to find the light—He sent the light to them. Sometimes all God asks of us is to look up, to turn our attention toward Him, and to allow His presence to settle our troubled hearts.
Maybe today you feel tired, burdened, or overlooked. Take a quiet moment to breathe deeply and turn your thoughts toward the One who loves you with everlasting love. Christ came into this world to draw near to you, not from afar, but with compassion and grace.
A gentle reminder for your heart: Hope grows when we lift our gaze from our troubles to our Savior.
In Christ’s peace,
Brother Jesse
