The Chapel Quotes
“It matters to God how we treat one another in His family, the body of Christ. It matters to God how we interact with the world around us, that is our mission field. Have you become a radically more loving person since you came to know Jesus Christ? Will you live for yourself first, which is what flesh wants to do, or will you die to yourself and put the interest of others first? One of these choices brings glory to God the other does not. The mind of Christ is that we are to be transformed by the renewing of our minds. Is Jesus your Savior and your Lord or is Jesus just your Savior? He needs to be both. The Christian life is about walking in obedience to Christ’s agenda, His will, His mission. Are you living before Jesus Christ as your Lord?”
“Because Jesus Christ is Lord today and forever will you choose the Christ-like path of humbly and sacrificially loving others? We need to let Christ’s love sink in to our lives more deeply, to melt our indifference, to melt our hate or whatever else it is that is driving us that’s not love. We need to let the love of Christ compel us and motivate us to love others sacrificially.”
“Because Jesus Christ is Lord in 2026 and forever, I will bow and confess that Jesus Christ is Lord of my life, Lord of our church and Lord of all. I will live under the Lordship of Jesus, doing now what we will be doing in eternity. Pray for the lost and share the good news of the gospel so that more will join the confession that Jesus Christ is Lord.”

Devotion 12/28/2025
Our Devotion, “Ceaseless Gratitude” is by Giselle M. Gonzalez of Longview, Texas, who studied professional writing at Taylor University in Upland, Indiana.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: “In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.” 1 Thessalonians 5:18 (KJV)
When I was in ninth grade my best friend was named Andrew. One afternoon he sent me a text message: We need to talk. I’ll call you tonight. The entire afternoon I fidgeted as I pondered the possibilities of our impending discussion. Finally, around nine o’clock, my phone rang.
“What’s going on?” I asked frantically.
“My mother just filed for divorce,” he answered, “and now we’re camping out at my grandparents’ place because my mom is afraid that when my dad finds out, he’ll try to hurt us.”
I was speechless. His situation was impossible for me to fathom because my own parents’ marriage was marvelously stable. “Andrew, I’m so sorry. I wish I could help. You must be really mad.”
“No, I’m not mad. I’m sad,” he said, then paused. “But I’m still grateful.”
“Who could you possibly be grateful to?” I squawked with shock.
“God. He gave me two parents who may not love each other, but they still love me. He gave me a wonderful sister. He gave me four healthy, caring grandparents. He gave me amazing Christian friends. He gave me my house, my country, and my life. Who am I to challenge God because of one bump in my road?”
PRAYER: Christ, please let me see the blessings you’ve surrounded me with each day. Please help me give you ceaseless praise for your ceaseless bounty.

LOOKING FOR LOVELY: Collecting the Moments that Matter
By Annie F. Downs
B&H Publishing Group, PB, 194 pages
Annie F. Downs shares her experiences in the past years learning to look for what is lovely in life. She introduces us to her life before she started looking for loveliness, and how her life changed during the search, and she ends with a glimpse of who she is now because of it. This is a book about what Downs calls the greatest transformation of her life, and a challenge to her readers to learn from her and begin their own transformations.
This is a wonderful collection of anecdotes about sunrises and concerts and nights in Israel. I found myself wanting to listen to new worship music and paint my nails alongside her. This book was fresh air to me, and I related to the author in every chapter. I felt freed of a weight I hadn’t realized I was carrying as I started to look for lovely things in my own life. She inspired me to search for evidence of God in the everyday events of my life. The author addresses her story to single Christian women, as she is relating her own life of being one herself.
