“Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace”
I love that passage in Isaiah 9 that gives us a few of the names which help describe Jesus. I have found
that utilizing the many different names for Jesus the Son, God the Father and the Holy Spirit are ways to
help me appreciate and love the Lord even more! So, whether I am journaling or praying directly to the
Lord, I try to think of the many attributes of our Triune God which helps to recognize a little better His
divine nature. No matter what words that we use, they will fall short in defining the Indescribable King
of Kings and Lord of Lords. But it can be really enlightening and fun to try!
In His Service,

“Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, and constant in prayer.”
Great words from St. Paul for us in the good times and the times of struggle. Jesus tells us also that in this life we will have tribulation but to be of good cheer, because He has overcome the world. So…if we think everything is always going to be easy or if someone tells us if we live or believe a certain way then life will be without challenges, we will be continually disappointed. The truth is that life is tough but that there will also be times of hope and celebration. The key to living a fulfilled, contented Christian life is summed up in the last 3 words of the quote above. Being “constant in prayer” will keep us in continual fellowship with Jesus. Abiding in Him brings forth peace and as we get better at hearing His still small voice, He will lead us throughout our day. By the way, if you just read this, send me an email at wakeuppc@gmail.com and I will send you a blessing!
Rejoicing in Hope,
