Starting today you will see the Stillness in the Morning blog look a bit different. The layout will be updated but you'll still be able to get daily devotionals by my favorite authors as well as a few of my own thoughts on my devotional time. You will also be able to get monthly memory verses like before.
What will change is the Bible Reading Guide. I will no longer be posting them like I have but will give you the Back to the Bible website link so you can go there yourself and choose which method you want to use.
Thank you for taking the time to visit the Stillness blog. I hope the Lord has blessed you through it.

God's Promises - Prayer
"Then you will call upon Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you." Jeremiah 29:12
One of the things I love about God is that no matter what I know that I can call upon Him and He will listen to me. When is the last time you called upon the Lord in prayer? If it's been a while I strong encourage you to take some time and communicate with the Lord through prayer.

God's Promises - Trust
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge HIm, and He will make your paths straight." Proverbs 3:5-6
There are so many times when I chose not to trust in the Lord and trust in my own understanding. And I can say that each time I did this things didn't turn out for the best. Sometimes they still turned out OK but I know that had I trusted in the Lord that they may have turned out a lot different. Who are you trusting in?

God's Promises - Protection
"The Lord will protect you from al evil; He will keep your soul, the Lord will guard your going out and your coming in from this time froth and forever." Psalm 121:7-8
It is so wonderful that God cares so much for us that he constantly protects our going out and coming in. Think about the many times the Lord has been there for you in a time when you needed His protection the most. Now thank Him and praise Him for all that He's done for you.

The Christmas Story
Luke 2 - Jesus' Birth in Bethlehem
1 Now in those days a decree went out from Caesar Augustus, that a census be taken of all the inhabited earth.
2 This was the first census taken while Quirinius was governor of Syria.
3 And everyone was on his way to register for the census, each to his own city.
4 Joseph also went up from Galilee, from the city of Nazareth, to Judea, to the city of David which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David,
5 in order to register along with Mary, who was engaged to him, and was with child.
6 While they were there, the days were completed for her to give birth.
7 And she gave birth to her firstborn son; and she wrapped Him in cloths, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.
8 In the same region there were some shepherds staying out in the fields and keeping watch over their flock by night.
9 And an angel of the Lord suddenly stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them; and they were terribly frightened.
10 But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid; for behold, I bring you good news of great joy which will be for all the people;
11 for today in the city of David there has been born for you a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.
12 "This will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger."
13 And suddenly there appeared with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying,
14 "Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace among men with whom He is pleased."
15 When the angels had gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds began saying to one another, "Let us go straight to Bethlehem then, and see this thing that has happened which the Lord has made known to us."
16 So they came in a hurry and found their way to Mary and Joseph, and the baby as He lay in the manger.
17 When they had seen this, they made known the statement which had been told them about this Child.
18 And all who heard it wondered at the things which were told them by the shepherds.
19 But Mary treasured all these things, pondering them in her heart.
20 The shepherds went back, glorifying and praising God for all that they had heard and seen, just as had been told them.

Emmanuel
"Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign: Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel." Isaiah 7:14
Emmanuel, "God with us."
These days it's fashionable to speak of the "wonder" or the "magic" of Christmas, as though the holiday were simply a time to celebrate human kindness and the enduring strength of old and treasured relationships. For the Christian, this is especially frustrating. At times we are tempted, like Charlie Brown in the old "Peanuts" special, to shout, "Isn't there anybody who knows what Christmas is all about?"
As believers, we alone can share the real meaning of Christmas. It is contained in that lovely name Emmanuel, "God with us." Christmas is Jesus leaving His Glory in Heaven and humbling Himself to become one of us. The wonder of Christmas is that God should not only have good will towards us but demonstrate it in the most personal and costly way imaginable, all out of love for a ruined creation, and broken men and women.
As believers we have known and experienced God with us. He has left us the task of helping others to experience Him as Emmanuel, too.
Lord Jesus, let us be faithful to Your final command, to go into all the world and make disciples of all nations. While men's hearts and thoughts are turning to you in this season, help us to make the most of every opportunity to share Your light and your love!

God's Promises - Does more then we can ask
"Now to Him who is able to do for more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us." Ephesians 3:20
What an awesome God that we serve who is able to do "far more abundantly beyond all we ask or think." I love the fact that I can always go to Him with my needs but to also know that He anticipates our needs. Do you currently have a great need? Grasp this promise and go to Him with it. Then wait upon Him in faith and see what He can do for you and through you.
