Detour to Your Dreams

We can make our plans, but the Lord determines our steps.—Proverbs 16:9 (NLT)
When life throws a roadblock in your path—whether it comes in the form of illness, or an accident or a job loss—look again. It may be only a jog in the road, a different route leading to real fulfillment. A detour can sometimes lead you to your dream.
Keep my faith from ebbing, Lord. When obstacles arise, help me to trust Your plan.

Live by Jesus’ Example

Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.”—Matthew 16:24 NIV

If you want to be a better person, follow Christ’s lead. Be kind and loving to friends and foes alike, forgive those who have hurt you, be of service to others—help the poor, volunteer at a charity—do good deeds humbly and quietly.

Dear Lord, I am ready to serve. Guide me to where I am needed.

The Key to Fulfillment

Whoever finds their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life for my sake will find it.—Matthew 10:39 (NIV)

God wants you to have a blessed and wonderful life. He calls each of us to do His work here on earth. The key to fulfillment is to give yourself totally to a cause and be focused and dedicated on worthwhile tasks.

Father, fulfill Your purposes for me and help me to give myself generously to others without reservation.

Stay on the Holy Highway

And a highway will be there; it will be called the Way of Holiness; it will be for those who walk on that Way. The unclean will not journey on it; wicked fools will not go about on it.—Isaiah 35:8 NIV

You are progressing on the Way of Holiness. Reflect on how you feel as you move toward being more fully centered on God’s will. Take a moment and praise God for the positive changes happening in your faith and your life.

Lord, keep me moving forward spiritually. Help me keep on the path to holiness.

Shine for Jesus

In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.—Matthew 5:16 NIV

One of the purest forms of devotion is service—doing God’s work on earth. By bringing happiness, peace and security to others, we bring His heavenly traits to earth. When we serve others, we serve Christ.

Our Heavenly Father, help me to live so that not only do I have strength and joy myself, but that I may help others and build Your kingdom on earth.

Look to Yourself

“Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgment you pronounce, you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you.”—Matthew 7:1 ESV

Jesus speaks against judging someone while overlooking your own faults. Instead of criticizing another, explore your motivation. Are you being helpful or hurtful? The Bible tells us only God is able to judge someone’s heart.

Heavenly Father, help me to steer away from judgement. Help me to love with my whole heart.
