Power Living

His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness.—2 Peter 1:3 (NIV)

Jesus offers us His power, so that we may live our lives to bring Him glory. Lift your eyes to Him when you are striving for a goal that feels too big or struggling with the doubt of stretching outside your comfort zone. His power is at work in your life.

Lord, when I lack the confidence to follow Your plan, guide me to believe in myself. Help me find the courage that comes from knowing You are with me.

Mother’s Day Blessings

When Jesus saw his mother there, and the disciple whom he loved standing nearby, he said to her, “Woman, here is your son,” and to the disciple, “Here is your mother.” From that time on, this disciple took her into his home.—John 19:26–27 (NIV)

John is the only Gospel writer who recorded Jesus’ mother at the cross. One can only imagine the level of her pain and suffering. Jesus turned to John and said, “Take care of her.” Today, on Mother’s Day, may God bless and take care of mothers everywhere.

Dear God, I pray in gratitude to all mothers and caring women who have lovingly raised children.
