Keep Secrets

But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.—Matthew 6:6 (NIV)

Your prayer time with God is private and sacred; whatever you tell Him remains a secret you share. Often in the beginning God’s work within you is hidden, but eventually your spiritual growth will blossom and bear fruit for the world to see.

Dear Lord, I cherish our relationship and trust You wholeheartedly to grace me with Your gifts.

No Reason to Fear

So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.—Isaiah 41:10 (NIV)

It’s easy to feel the stress of life’s challenges weighing down on you—bad news, financial difficulties, a health issue, even something trivial like a callous comment can throw you off balance. But God deeply cares about everything in your life. Ask Him to reassure you that He is always with you and He will lead you through big and small problems, each and every day.

Lord, when I need a boost of faith, remind me to turn to the Bible; it is full of promises that comfort my heart and keep fear at bay.

Faith in God’s Timing

I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits, and in his word I put my hope.—PSALM 130:5 (NIV)

God’s timing is sometimes different from your own, and waiting on Him and remaining hopeful might seem impossible. If you become weary, turn to the Bible. Remind yourself who God is and why you should continue to hope in Him. Trust as David, the great king of Israel, did in the above verse, and know that God will guide your steps.

Heavenly Father, I know you are faithful to me, and I will be faithful to You, trusting that You hear and always answer my prayers.

Choose Better!

Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.—Psalm 51:10 (NIV)

There are many sayings about how we handle loss and difficult situations. That our reaction to devastating experiences can either make one bitter or better; our personal tragedies can either define or refine. Reflect on your life and your way of handling adversity. Ask God to help you release the pain and hard feelings that linger after loss and turn those feelings into something positive.

Dear Lord, when I feel broken hold me close and comfort me with Your perfect peace.
