Life’s Nitty-Gritty

You are familiar with all my ways.—Psalm 139:3 (NIV)

THE BEST WAY to deepen your relationship with God is to tell Him everything. You hopes and dreams, worries, fears, pesky little problems and nagging annoyances, everyday blessings, whatever is on your mind. Telling Him everything is the cure for loneliness.

Heavenly Father, thank You for helping me today and every day, especially with the details.

A time to break down, and a time to build up.—Ecclesiastes 3:3 (ESV)

Enjoy Every Day

You have granted me life and favor, and Your care has preserved my spirit.—Job 10:12 (NKJV)

GOD SHINES GOODNESS on you every day. Maybe it’s something as simple as the perfect parking spot, or bumping into an old friend exactly when you needed it. Look for His blessings and you’ll find them.

Heavenly Father, thank You for caring enough to send me daily reminders of Your love.

Team Beauty

For the Lord sees not as man sees: man looks on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart.—1 Samuel 16:7 (ESV)

MANY PEOPLE ARE preoccupied with their physical appearance—spending a lot of time and money chasing perfection—but the beautiful truth is that God’s focus is on the inside. Lent is a perfect time for you to look inward and spend time developing something that will last for all eternity—your relationship with Him.

Heavenly Father, help me to remember that true beauty comes from within.

Blooming Faith

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)

AS WE APPROACH the beginning of spring, we anxiously wait for the first precious flowering buds and the appearance of tender blades of grass. Just as nature is blossoming, God’s work is silently budding in your life.

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

See God’s Goodness at Work

I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.—Psalm 27:13 (NIV)

WHEN BAD THINGS happen, it is difficult to see the God’s goodness at work. When illnesses linger or financial problems strike, ask Jesus to help you see the silver living. Perhaps it is a deeper dependence on Him. No matter even if life’s most difficult moments try to see the goodness of the Lord.

Heavenly Father, help me see Your goodness in every circumstance.

Mountain Moving Faith

Truly I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, “Go, throw yourself into the sea,” and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them.—Mark 11:23 (NIV)

FAITH OPENS THE door to miracles. Is a mountainous difficulty challenging you? Pray that God is helping you move the mountain right now. Believe in His infinite power and don’t doubt or underestimate what He can do.

The Greatest Value

Three things will last forever—faith, hope, and love—and the greatest of these is love.—1 Corinthians 13:13 (NLT)

LOVE IS THE greatest value in life. Stop for a moment and truly take this truth into your mind, body and spirit. Live with love in your heart. Do everything you can to help human sorrow. Loving others will make you spiritually victorious—able to rise above all difficulty. Fear will be crowded out of your life and replaced with love.

Dear Lord, today on Valentine’s Day, continue to let me feel Your comforting love in my life—and guide me to extend Your pure and beautiful love onto others.

Break Down Barriers to Prayer

I have tried hard to find you—don’t let me wander from your commands.—Psalm 119:10 (NLT)

SOMETIMES WE PLACE roadblocks on our prayer journey. We make excuses about being too busy, too tired and too distracted but the truth is all of these things can be a springboard to prayer. Whatever is stopping you from spending more time on your faith, reach out to God and ask for His help.

Heavenly Father, give me the grace to change and help me to remember what an amazing gift it is to spend time with You.

The Best Advice

But Rehoboam rejected the advice the elders gave him and consulted the young men who had grown up with him and were serving him.—1 Kings 12:8 (NIV)

GOD GAVE US His Spirit to nudge us in ways we can’t always explain—a gut feeling, a phone call at exactly the right time, an email subject line that speaks directly to our problem. When we immerse ourselves in the Word of God, we grow more connected to Him and it becomes easier to know when He is leading us.

Heavenly Father, You always speak to me when I need guidance. You are the best counsel I can have.
