Hello Reader, I remember once sitting in a hospital waiting room at 3 AM, watching the automatic doors slide open and closed as medical staff rushed past. My hands were wrapped around a Styrofoam cup of terrible coffee that had gone cold an hour ago, but I kept holding it because it gave me something to do. The waiting room TV was playing a loop of cheerful holiday shows and fun movies. Families were sitting around perfectly decorated trees. And there I was, alone in a fluorescent-lit room, waiting for news about someone I loved, feeling like I was living in a completely different universe than the one on that screen. As I flipped through a holiday magazine, large font words jumped from the page just as I turned it: Emmanuel: God with us. It gave me pause. Here too. In this awful waiting room. In this fear. In this moment that felt so far from any holiday season I'd ever imagined. God with us wasn't just a title for the manger scene. It was a promise for the hospital waiting room. Emmanuel doesn't mean "God with us when Christmas feels magical" or "God with us when we're gathered around the tree with cocoa and carols." It means God with us in the hospital waiting rooms. God with us when we're holding cold coffee at 3 AM. God with us when the holiday we're experiencing looks nothing like the one we planned. The incarnation isn't just a theological concept; it's God's radical response to human loneliness. When He could have sent instructions or blessings from a distance, He chose to be with us. He entered into our actual lives with all the pain and chaos and disappointment. The word "Emmanuel" is explicitly used in this prophecy because it not only describes what Jesus would do, but also describes who He would be. His very presence, His very nature is "God with us." Every moment of His life on earth was a declaration: I am here. I am with you. I will not leave you alone. So, Friend, wherever you are today, solidify this one truth in your heart: God is with you.

Hello Reader, The angels at the empty tomb asked the women a question that I've been reflecting on this week: "Why do you look for the living among the dead?" This Easter, I'm getting honest about the dead places I've been looking for life — not out in the world, but inside my own heart. The self-talk that tears down instead of builds up. The thoughts that are not true, not honest, not of good report. What happens when what's living in our hearts starts flowing out of our mouths? You’ll...
Hey Reader, Moments of desperation strike every human heart. Whether tragedy, sickness, or brokenness, the reasons for our despair seem endless. As I have drenched myself in the Psalms season after season since my daughter, Taylor’s, death in 2019, Psalm 102:17 has often arrested my attention. “He will respond to the prayer of the destitute.” I researched the word “destitute” because in my mind, I typically would define destitute as “homeless.” Maybe you too? So I read every major Bible...
