Day 3 of Hope Breaks the Darkness
Hope Starts Small But Grows
Reading: Luke 2:1-20; Philippians 1:3-6
The most world-changing moment in history arrived quietly—a baby in a manger, easy to miss if you weren't watching. God often works in whispers before He works in shouts. That small prayer you breathed, that quiet step of obedience, that gentle conviction—these are seeds of transformation. Don't despise small beginnings. The shepherds could have dismissed the angels' message as too insignificant. Instead, they hurried to see what God was doing. Today, watch for the small moments with God: a timely word, an unexpected peace, a gentle prompting. These seemingly minor encounters can become pivotal turning points that redirect your entire life.
Reflection: What small seed of hope is God planting in your life right now?
