A Purpose Behind Every Problem

Let your roots grow down into him and draw up nourishment from him. See that you go on growing in the Lord, and become strong and vigorous in the truth you were taught. Let your lives overflow with joy and thanksgiving for all he has done.—Colossians 2:7 TLB
God wants you to grow in character, and when you dedicate your life to becoming like Him you understand that everything that happens to you has spiritual significance. There is a purpose behind every problem.
Heavenly Father, thank You for using life’s trials to help us grow to be better people.

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.

A Little Spring for Your Spirit

As surely as the sun rises, he will appear; he will come to us like the winter rains, like the spring rains that water the earth.—Hosea 6:3 NIV
This time of year is a powerful reminder that we serve a living God. The greening grass and budding trees are living examples of birth and rebirth. When the world seems chaotic, look to the most triumphant of seasons and know that things are in order with God. Spring is on time.
Renew our spirits, Lord, as You do the earth after a long winter.

Your Time Will Come

But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.—Isaiah 40:31 NIV

Sometimes opportunities take time to develop. When you think that your dreams will never come to fruition, close your eyes and imagine them realized. By envisioning the future, you can glimpse the joy of a goal achieved and in that imagined success, you can continue to move forward with renewed encouragement and inspiration.

When I grow restless, Lord, remind me that my time will come.

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

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
