“While you have the light, believe in the light, so that you may become children of light.” After Jesus had said this, he departed and hid from them. John 12:28–36 (12:36)

In this text, Jesus gladly revealed himself as the Son of Man, despite the fact that people didn’t fully understand what that meant. It’s as if Jesus was hiding right in front of us, buut he didn’t remain hidden. At times, our search may be obstructed by darkness. Suffering and sorrow, pain and disbelief can all tamp down the light, threatening to s***f it out completely. Thank God for the Son of man, whose light outshines the darkness. Today, we lean into this divine light with great anticipation. We let go of our need to hide, and lean into the joy of being found by Christ. By rekindling our awe of God’s Holy Light and reclaiming our belief in Jesus as the Light, we will burn again with passion for the One who seeks and finds us all.

Lord, we earnestly seek you in the darkness. Help us to find you as the light so that we may find life as children of that light. We cannot shine without you. Amen.

Then Moses turned again to the Lord and said, “O Lord, why have you mistreated this people? Why did you ever send me? Since I first came to Pharaoh to speak in your name, he has mistreated this people, and you have done nothing at all to deliver your people.” Exodus 5:10–23 (5:22–23)

Life with God is filled with promises and expectations. However, God’s promises are not always fulfilled when or how we expect. We can be so focused on an expected result of a promise that we lose sight of the source of the promise. In our anguish, we want God to move quickly, wasting no time to do what God promised to do. Yet even in desperate times, we are called to reset our expectations of God. This becomes a sacred opportunity to take the focus off of what God does and refocus on who God is.

God, reset my expectations. Shift my gaze from your hands to your heart and carry me through all my troubles. Thank you for teaching me how to wait on you. Amen.

As we enter this season of Lent, we are invited to fast, serve, and pray not because we’ll be recognized by people, but because of our love for God. When God is our audience, no one else has to know. So whether we choose to eat cake or deny it, whether celebrating in silence or with a loud song, God is most concerned with our motivation, not our activation.

In Matthew 6:1–6, 16–21, it tells us, “Beware of practicing your piety before others in order to be seen by them; for then you have no reward from your Father in heaven.” (6:1)

Lord, help us to let go of outward piety and lean into your unfailing love. Let your presence be our pursuit and your pleasure our only reward. Amen.

I wanted to share a word to those of you who, for whatever reason, will not be receiving any physical or electronic messages of affection on February 14th. It is that there is nothing wrong with being single. We are all single in our youth and, unless a husband and wife die on the same day, even those of us who are married will face singleness. We live at a time when, misled by ‘the media’, romance is seen as a magic something that transforms our lives, adds a sparkle to existence and gives everything in life meaning. Sadly, romance can become a replacement for God and, like all such replacements, it is inadequate and will disappoint all who trust in it. Who you and I are is defined by our relationship to God, not by whether we are in a relationship or married. Some are called by God to be single, some have singleness thrust upon them, but in Christ all of us have extraordinary value and can find true contentment.
-J. John

God wants us to come to him empty-handed, weary, and heavy-laden. Instinctively we want to get rid of our helplessness before we come to God.

Our woes began when God was forced out of His central shrine and “things” were allowed to enter. Within the human heart “things” have taken over. Men have now, by nature, no peace within their hearts, for God is crowned there no longer, but there in the moral dusk, stubborn and aggressive usurpers fight among themselves for first place on the throne.

Prayer is a gigantic stress-reliever. It is a God-given tool for letting off your anxieties. No matter how busy Jesus got, he made it a practice to spend time alone with God. If Jesus made time for prayer when he was busy, how much more do you?

You can’t please everybody, because by the time one group becomes pleased with you, another group gets upset with you. Even God doesn’t please everybody, so it’s foolish to try to do something that even God doesn’t do! Jesus knew whom he was trying to please; it was a settled issue with him: “I’m going to please God the Father.” And the Father replied, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased” (Matt. 3:17 KJV).

The first principle for handling stress in your life is knowing who you are. It is the principle of identification. Jesus said, “I know who I am. I testify for myself” (see John 8:18). This is critically important in stress management because if you don’t know who you are, someone else may try to tell you who they think you are. If you don’t know who you are, you will subconsciously let other people manipulate you and pressure you into believing you are somebody you aren’t.

Joy is not about feeling happy all the time. Joy is a settled assurance about God, a quiet confidence in God, and a determined choice to give praise to God.
