A Happy Heart

A merry heart doeth good like a medicine.—Proverbs 17:22 (KJV)

Are you burdened by worry? If you can let go of focusing on your problems and center your thinking on the riches that are yours as a child of God, you will live a happier, healthier life.

Lord, when I begin thinking of myself as Atlas holding up the world, I will put my trust in You.

Satisfy Your Spirit

For behold, the kingdom of God is within you.—Luke 17:21 (AKJV)

Do you find yourself thinking that if you only had this or that you’d be happy? Don’t confuse spiritual yearnings with material wants. Instead, build your faith, spend time in prayer in communion with God.

Father, speak to me in Your still, small voice.

Sing God’s Praises

He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God.—Psalm 40:3 (NIV)

Our struggles, our successes, even our failures—these are not our song. God is our song. When you make time for Him, putting your faith first—you experience a new song, a new way of life, a symphony of His beauty.

Heavenly Father, help us to live joyously, to celebrate the song in our heart and rejoice always.

Mother’s Love

And Mary said: “My soul glorifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior for He has been mindful of the humble state of His servant. From now on all generations will call me blessed, for the Mighty One has done great things for me—holy is His name.”—Luke 1:46-49 (NIV)

On this day when we honor all mothers, we look to the above verse. Mary, the mother of Jesus, is the most beloved and revered woman in the Bible. She willingly accepted her role as the blessed mother and remained stalwart in her faith.

Dear Lord, You have done so many great things for me… most especially You have blessed me with a mother’s love.

The Bright Side of Bad Experiences

God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.—Psalm 46:1 (NIV)

Challenges have a way of transforming people. Hardship isn’t something God wants for His children, but they are a part of life. The good news is that people who rise above hard times, gain more sensitivity, more sympathy and more understanding for the problems of others.

Lord, thank You for seeing me through difficult days with grace and beauty.

Everything You Need

Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us.—Ephesians 3:20 (ESV)

God has placed all the abilities you need in your spirit. Believe in yourself and the strength within you will surface. When you feel overwhelmed and weak, repeat these words, “God’s abundance and power are within me. I lack for nothing.”

Dear Lord, because of Your strength I can accomplish more than I ever imagined.

Failure Strengthens Faith

But I have prayed for you that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned again, strengthen your brothers.—Luke 22:32 (ESV)

At the Last Supper, Jesus predicted that Peter’s faith would falter, that he would deny his relationship with Him. But Jesus also knew that Peter would return to Him. Peter’s story teaches us that when we stumble on our faith journey, it’s not our fall that matters but the fact that we pick ourselves up and continue on His path.

God of fair beginnings, no matter how badly things have gone, You always make it possible for me to start a new beginning.

Look Forward Not Back

Forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.—Philippians 3:13-14 (KJV)

Memories are great places to visit, but don’t dwell there. Instead, heed the Apostle Paul’s advice in the above verse. Growing and aging each day is one of God’s greatest gifts. Thank Him for every new day–and then get on with the work that lies ahead.

Heavenly Father, help me make the most of every day of my life.

Clear Away Obstacles

That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.—2 Corinthians 12:10 (NIV)

Are you feeling frustrated about reaching your goals? Take a moment and consider what is stopping you. Whether it is lack of commitment, perfectionism, fear of failure, fatigue or interruptions—whatever—pray about how to eliminate the obstacles that keep you from achieving your goals.

Heavenly Father, give me the faith, determination and perseverance to succeed.
