Jesus wants to increase your faith through the restoration of your soul. None of us are fully united to the will of God yet. We all need to turn back to God — or turn more completely his way — in something we’re doing today.

With Christmas fast approaching, consider what needs healing in your relationship with God so that your faith will grow stronger. Are you so busy getting ready for the holiday that you’re not making faith a priority? If your Christmas preparations are not distracting you from the Savior whose birth we celebrate, that’s wonderful, but slow down! Advent is not supposed to be like running a marathon race and grabbing a bottle of liquid refreshment as you dash past Jesus in the Communion line at church on your way to the next activity.

Take time today to refocus on your friendship with God and locate something that needs healing and restoration, then decide what changes you will make to build up and increase your faith.
