As the countdown to the New Year commences, hold fast to this truth: “The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. (Lamentations 3:22-23 NIV). The LORD has been faithful to us in 2025. Through every struggle, hardship, victory and joyous celebration, God has been there.

When did you last unplug from technology? Many of us are tethered to our cell phones from the moment we wake up to the time we go to sleep. One Saturday evening, a few months ago, I remember reaching the brink of panic because I could not find my cell phone anywhere. I spent hours searching frantically for it, my mind spinning as I tried to retrace my movements throughout the day and all the time wishing I had not switched it to silent mode.
