Welcome Spring

For behold, the winter is past; the rain is over and gone. The flowers appear on the earth, the time of singing has come, and the voice of the turtledove is heard in our land.—Song of Solomon 2:11-12 ESV

Today is the first day of spring! Soon the first precious flowers will bud and bloom. Just as nature is blossoming, God’s work is silently budding in your life.

Heavenly Father, nurture my spirit and help me grow into the person You intend me to be.

The Blessed Trinity

Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.—Matthew 28:19 NIV
Today as we celebrate Saint Patrick’s Day, consider the shamrock. Saint Patrick is said to have used the shamrock in his sermons to represent the Trinity and how the Father, Son and Holy Spirit can all exist as separate parts of the same entity coming together to support us with love and comfort.
In the words of Saint Patrick, “Christ with me, Christ before me, Christ behind me.”

Master Your Doubts

We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.—2 Corinthians 10:5 NIV

As you travel ahead on your spiritual journey, doubt can confuse or distract you. View yourself as the absolute master of your doubts. Refuse to listen to negative thoughts and focus on God’s Word.

Heavenly Father, I sometimes doubt my faith or feel that I am not worthy of Your love. Help me to shed my insecurities, let go of my excuses and truly invite You to be Lord of my life.

Break Through Barriers

Since they could not get him to Jesus because of the crowd, they made an opening in the roof above Jesus by digging through it and then lowered the mat the man was lying on.—Mark 2:4 NIV
In this Scripture, a group of men were so determined for their paralyzed friend to see Jesus that they broke through the roof and lowered him down. Their breakthrough led Jesus to heal the man. Look to your heart. Is there any place where you need a breakthrough for healing?
Heavenly Father, help me identify and break down the barriers that block me from Your healing.

Set Your Spirit for More Light

“As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.”—John 9:5 ESV

The word “light” appears more than two hundred times in the Bible. Light represents the presence of God. Light gives us comfort and understanding. We strive to walk in God’s light. Today as we change the clocks ahead for Daylight Saving Time, consider the importance of light in your spiritual life.

Lord, today I will concentrate on setting my spirit to let in more of Your glorious light.

Interruptions Happen

Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him and he will do this.—Psalm 37:5 NIV

Sometimes distractions pull us away from our time with God. Your best intentions for devotion can be detoured by a pressing need. Instead of getting upset, squeeze in time whenever you can. Commit your way to the Lord and trust that interruptions are part of His plan.

Heavenly Father, if a distraction needs my attention, be with me along the way and guide me back to You.

No one knows what tomorrow will bring but you can be at peace with whatever the future holds if you know the Peacemaker. He is always beside you, strengthening and supporting you. Trust that God’s blessings and peace are yours, today and always.

A Gentle Answer

A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.—Proverbs 15:1 NIV
Next time you are tempted to speak harshly against another who has hurt you, stop for a moment. Is the problem as serious as you’re making it? Will your words improve the situation, lead to a solution, or only show your anger? Whatever you say, be compassionate and caring. Set your mind on mending the relationship.

Keep me, God, from stirring up anger. Help me use words that comfort and heal.
