During this holiday season, we recognize that joy and sorrow often sit side by side. For many, this time of year carries the weight of empty chairs, quiet moments, and memories that come with both warmth and ache. Isaiah 35:8 reminds us that even in these tender spaces, God provides ‘a highway… a way… called the Way of Holiness.’ It is a sacred path designed to guide us when our hearts feel fragile and our steps feel unsure.
Grief does not follow a calendar, and the holidays don’t pause the healing process. Yet God promises a road where we cannot lose our way — a path protected, purposeful, and filled with His presence. On this journey, He walks beside us, steadies us, and surrounds us with comfort that does not fade when the lights and celebrations begin.
As you move through this season, take each day one breath at a time. Hold close the memories that bring peace, release the expectations that feel heavy, and allow God’s gentle guidance to lead you forward. The Way of Holiness is not about perfection; it is about presence — God’s presence with you, carrying you, and helping you navigate each moment with grace.
May you experience unexpected strength, quiet reassurance, and the tender reminder that you are not walking alone. This holiday, we honor your loved one’s legacy, we honor your grief, and we honor your courage. And as Isaiah 35:8 promises, may God’s sacred highway guide you toward healing, hope, and peace.”
