Fear can be crippling, stopping you from doing the very things that God is calling you to do. His love can help you overcome all obstacles. Pray for the confidence to follow your heart. Read over some of the many Scriptures in the Bible that begin with “fear not,” and trust that He is ready to help you accomplish your greatest achievements.

Do you believe in miracles? When Zechariah doubted that God was blessing his life with a miracle he lost his ability to speak. He did not believe God could change the laws of nature. He didn’t comprehend God’s amazing power.

Do you want to make a change in your life? Perhaps you want to give up a bad habit or release a grudge. Only Jesus can transform your heart to be more like His. He can bring blessings to your life.

It has been said that pain is the great human connector. When we experience pain we are linked with all others who are also going through heartache, grief and discomfort, and in that shared experience we can pray and heal one another.

A balanced life comes from having faith and trusting God. When you let go of doubt and fear and give yourself fully to the moment, you can relax in the present. You can appreciate what you are going through—even if it is not what you had in mind.

Life is a journey of experiences and countless gifts, but sometimes problems overshadow the goodness in the world. The practice of prayer helps to heal challenging situations and reveals light, love and forgiveness in even the most difficult times. When we turn to God, we experience His divine insight.

Jesus’ first miracle served an ordinary purpose and possibly one many can relate to even today—the wine had run out at a party. Only the servants were aware that the best wine had actually come from water. The miracle was a fitting end to a wedding, but of course as we all now know, it was just the beginning.

Jesus puts an idea in our hearts for a reason. Yet what does this mean when no matter how hard we try, it feels like the doors of opportunity are closing rather than opening? Perhaps God is helping you grow in patience and faith as you wait until He opens a different door in His perfect time.

Whatever is weighing on your heart, God invites you to pour out your problems to Him and let His love in. Quiet your mind and listen for His guidance as He fills you with the warmth and radiance of divine love. Know that God will somehow work things out for the best.
