Suggested Reflection Questions:

  • How have you experienced God’s grace at work through the small, the unimportant, or the overlooked of the world?
  • The psalm today talks about God’s ability to bring forth blessings in our lives. How has practicing your faith optimized your life? 
  • God guided Joseph to take a leap of faith and raise Mary’s son as his own. Have you ever decided to take a leap of faith, even though you were scared? How is the process a struggle? How is it a joy?
  • How have you been blessed? Name the ways that God has graced you (and nothing is too small to be counted as a blessing in your life).
