The path marked Humility will take you to the manger of the Messiah.

God will use your mess for good. We see a perfect mess; God sees a perfect chance to train, test , and teach.

Are you weary? Catch your breath. Are you strong? Reserve passing judgment on the tired.

Find joy in the ordinary.

Your serenity matters to heaven. God's presence encapsulates your life.

The presence of anxiety is unavoidable, but the prison of anxiety is optional. Anxiety is not a sin; it's an emotion. So don't be anxious about feeling anxious. Anxiety can, however, lead to sinful behavior. When we numb our fears with six-packs or food binges, when we spew anger like Krakatau, when we peddle our fears to anyone who will buy them, we're sinning.

Waiting is a sustained effort to stay focused on God through prayer and belief.
