The rearview mirror doesn’t offer much satisfaction anymore, and honestly, what once felt urgent in 2025 now feels surprisingly small. I’m loosening my grip on yesterday and opening my hands wide to this day.
And I’m stoked about it.
It feels like the starter’s pistol has fired: On your mark...get set…GO!
Go big or go small -- but GO. GO for living fully. GO for loving deeply. GO for kindness that costs something. GO for a year rich with purpose, possibility, and holy expectation.
Here’s the best news ever -- the calendar flipped, but Christ did not. The Light we celebrated at Christmas didn’t dim when the decorations came down. If anything, it shines brighter now -- when the music fades, the crowds thin, and the stillness returns.
I noticed it in the sweet hush of our home. In the calm that settles when nothing is flashing or buzzing. That’s often where Jesus waits -- not in the noise, but in the pause.
December has a way of reminding us to look up. To give. To notice. To worship. The temptation, once January arrives, is to tuck those habits away with the ornaments. But why should seeking the Lord ever be seasonal?
The Wise Men didn’t stop once they found Him. They kept moving, kept following the Light, kept trusting the journey until they reached the Savior. And Scripture still whispers the same promise to us today -- "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you." Matthew 7:7
So as 2026 stretches out before us -- fresh and unwritten -- may we carry the Christmas LIGHTS in us. May we seek Him on ordinary mornings, busy afternoons, and quiet nights. May we follow His Light into our homes, our choices, and our days.
The miracle remains. Hallelujah!
Wise men still seek Him.
Wise women do too.
And when we seek Him, we find life -- abundant life.
I’m counting on that life for me -- and for you and yours!
