Loved by God

Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,

May the peace of the Lord be with us.

We are at the end of the first month of 2026. With what resolutions did we begin this year? What do we want to achieve, obtain, change, improve? A new job, a promotion, meeting the right person to marry, or finally being blessed with the children we have long awaited. We want to learn to do something new, we have fears to overcome, and many other things.

Each of us has dreams and aspirations to fulfill. In this whole process, what place do we give to God? Are these dreams only ours, or is God the Father part of them too?

We were created by God to be with Him, forever.

God created mankind in His own image
in the image of God He created them
male and female He created them
Genesis 1:27

Having been created in His image, we carry within us the spark of divine love, which makes us children of God and heirs of His grace. Each one of us is called by name to contribute to the good of creation.

The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God.
Romans 8:16

Let us begin 2026 with the intention of being good children who speak with the Father.

Lord,
You who, in Your immense love, have made us Your children, help us to live as You desire. Teach us how to ask, make us humble so that we may pray with open hearts, so that everything we do and obtain may serve to give You glory, living in full joy in Your name.
Enlighten us so that we may recognize the signs along our path. Guide us to dedicate our time to what You love and to what You created us to be.
Teach us to ask, make us humble, enlighten us, and let us feel loved.
With the Holy Spirit and the grace of our Lord Jesus, we want to live as beloved children in 2026.
