You’ve Got the Power

I can do all things through him who strengthens me.—Philippians 4:13 (ESV)
Is there something you would like to change about yourself? Be less critical? More patient? Pray more? It isn’t too late to change your habits. God stands ready to help anyone who truly wants to turn his or her life in a new direction.
I know, Lord, that through You I have the power to change anything in my life.

A Spring Prayer

He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making everything new!” Then he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.”—Revelation 21:5 (NIV)

Spring is a special time of year. A time of renewal and beginnings. God gave us life and He alone can renew our spirits so that we experience each and every day to the fullest.

Heavenly Father, let me be open to Your presence so that I see beauty in the world You created.

Life-Changing Thoughts

And Jesus said to him, “‘If you can’! All things are possible for one who believes.”—Mark 9:23 (ESV)

Dr. Norman Vincent Peale said, “Change your thoughts and change your world.” Your mind is a potent tool. It can work for or against you. It can help you achieve great victories or lead you down the road to inglorious defeat. You choose.

Lord, I believe. Help me see myself as You see me.

Fill Me with Your Spirit

My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God: when shall I come and appear before God?—Psalm 42:2 (KJV)

Our faith is the victory that overcomes the world (1 John 5:4). If you feel like something is missing in your life, a hunger in your heart that you can’t seem to satisfy, the emptiness may be a spiritual one. Devote your energy to deepening your relationship with Christ.

Lord, You are the center of my life. Fill me with Your spirit!

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.
