RECEIVING THE LOVE OF GOD
Use this simple tool for 5-10 minutes of silence and solitude.
1- Take 10 deep breaths – with each inhale, pray silently “Jesus,” and on the exhale, pray, “You love me.”
2- Your mind might run wild, but spend the first few moments resting in God’s love.
3- Read Ephesians 3:18-19 multiple times. Read until certain words or phrases feel like they’re being ‘highlighted’ for you. Ask God what he might be saying to you.
4- Pray those impressions back to God. Try praying out loud, writing in a journal, or changing your physical posture (open hands or arms wide, kneel down, or lift your head).
Take a Next Step: Save a verse image for Ephesians 3:18-19 and share it with someone today. It is the reason for the season!

About this Plan
The holidays bring excitement and busyness, sweet moments and chaos, blessing and frustration. In the hustle, bustle, merry, and bright, we’re looking expectantly for perfect presents and serene gatherings. The reality often falls short of our expectations. And that’s why celebrating Advent is an important rhythm for our calendars. As you eagerly anticipate Christmas day, find moments to pause and rest in the story of God’s love.
