Practice Peace

Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.—John 14:27 (NIV)

Your Heavenly Father is ever present, ever protecting, keeping you in His daily care. Whenever you feel stressed, turn to this verse and believe Christ’s promise: There is nothing to fear.

Dear God, still my heart and calm my fear. Help me go forward with confidence knowing I am divinely led.

Relinquish the Struggle

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 2:12 (ESV)

Wildflowers grow and flourish under God’s care, a beautiful reminder that even when life seems overwhelming there is no need to struggle—God will take care of you. Today, simply trust Him. Pray and leave your uncertainties with Him as you fill your mind with His peace.

Lord, when I panic, guide me to sense Your presence. Help me face the situation with Your strength.

Living Water

“Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink.”—John 7:37 (NIV)

Keep Moving Forward

We share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory. I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.—Romans 8:17–18

When you are going through dark times, keep moving and keep on putting your hope in Jesus, the Light of the world. Know that there is always light at the end of the tunnel, and every tunnel offers lessons that will help you grow. Every tunnel moves you forward to a destination.

Lord, during times of darkness I trust You. Together we will make it to the other side.

Well-Lived, Well-Loved

He was thirty-two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem. And he departed with no one’s regret. They buried him in the city of David, but not in the tombs of the kings.—2 Chronicles 21:20 (ESV)

This verse is a cautionary tale—a bold message of how not to live—shown by King Jehoram’s wicked life. A purposeful journey is built on love and acts of service and is guided by faith.

Dear Lord, help me live my life guided by Your love. Help me prepare my heart so that I will follow You every step of the way.

Breathe Christ

All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.—2 Timothy 3:16–17 (NIV)

Breathe in God through prayer. Every day is a fresh start. Embrace the new. There is nothing to fear. God knows your past and is in control of your future. With Him in your life, you have all that you need. You are complete.

Father God, a wonderful, joyful, peaceful life awaits!

God of Thunder

The voice of the Lord is over the waters; the God of glory thunders, the Lord thunders over the mighty waters.—Psalm 29:3 (NIV)

Lightning and thunderstorms can be loud and scary, energizing and booming. An exquisite display of light and wonder. The next time you experience a summer storm, ask God to thunder into your life and bring light to the darkness in flashes of glorious awe.

Lord, Your Word streaks light into my life.

Develop Dedicated Devotion

I keep my eyes always on the Lord. With him at my right hand, I will not be shaken.—Psalm 16:8 (NIV)

Even the strongest faith can be tested by devastating loss and change. When you feel your beliefs shaken, turn to this verse. Nothing throws Jesus off balance. He steadies you. He will never let you slip and fall.

Dear God, it is when the unimaginable happens that I need to believe in You the most.

Give God Your Dreams

Then Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up.—Luke 18:1 (NIV)

Do you have a dream that, despite your best effort, has not come to fruition? Turn to Scripture and surrender your deepest desires to God. Lay them at His feet and ask Him to take away anything that is not meant for your life.

Lord, align my mind and heart with Your plan.
