Fixing our eyes on Jesus makes joy available to us, even in weariness, discouragement, or suffering, which seek to eclipse the joy we have before us.

This is the scope of God’s redemptive work: Nothing will be left untouched by it.

Through the power of the Spirit, we can affirm and encourage one another in faith, knowing that God’s promises are always best enjoyed together.

All true goodness, satisfaction, and joy can only come from a loving relationship with God.

God is always working to bring forth something greater than we could ask or imagine.

In the soil of pain and shame, Zechariah’s demand for certainty grew, yielding the fruit of unbelief when met with the promise of God.

Unity and peace are not things we earn or create, but that we receive from God and share in the keeping of.

Peace is not found in the absence of anxiety, but in the presence of God.

Not if something bad happens, but when something bad happens, He will be our peace.

Remembering the big picture grounds us in a grander and greater narrative than we could ever imagine.
