We care how others perceive us. We should: God told us we are the light of the world. Our faith should look good to those around us.

Do you want your faith to endure? Prepare for your trials. Get rid of distractions from God. And look at Him rather than your hardships.

To grow in physical strength, you must push your body to the limits; the same is true of our faith. Test the limits of your faith.

Whatever you believe about yourself, God has given you value that can't be taken away. You can see it when you take care of others.

Jesus gave His life to give us a new day. Remember the price He paid for us, and give Him this new year.
