Read along in 1 Thessalonians 5:1-19 to look upon yourself and your life. Look upon how we conform to the image of God, look upon the motivators of our lives, and explore where we hold God in our lives. As we look at the footprints of our lives, do we understand that God's love and desire for us carry us in the most difficult times in our lives? Moving into the Advent season, are we holding the joy of God's love? Have you told God that you love Him? Give thanks and give praise each and every day. His love endures forever.
