Look to the Heavens

Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.—Colossians 3:1–2 (NIV)
In the above verse, Paul urges us to set our minds not on earthly things but above. We are to seek a heavenly mindset. Choose to be kind and generous. Offer love and understanding to others. Seek heaven!
Almighty Father, guide me to see and be the good in the world.

When You Feel Stuck

This is what the Lord says: “You will be in Babylon for seventy years. But then I will come and do for you all the good things I have promised, and I will bring you home again.—Jeremiah 29:10 (NLT)
When you feel stuck, ask God to open your mind to new ideas and solutions. Sometimes you are so used to seeing the situation from your same perspective that you are blind to other possibilities. The key to moving forward is prayer.
Faithful Father, when I am stuck, guide me to see the solution that I am overlooking.

Are You Listening?

For God alone, O my soul, wait in silence, for my hope is from him.—Psalm 62:5 (ESV)
God is the source of hope and healing. Sit quietly and remind yourself that you are in the presence of God. Instead of talking to Him, listen to the words He speaks to your heart. He will never leave you.
Lord, my Rock and Redeemer, sometimes I am so frantic talking to You that I forget to listen.

Perfectly Imperfect

Though he fall, he shall not be cast headlong, for the Lord upholds his hand.—Psalm 37:24 (ESV)
How do you handle your mistakes? Do you hold them down deep or accept and release them as part of your growth? God weaves your failures into part of your unique and amazing life. His design for you is built on all that you are—your successes and your disappointments—all become part of your beautiful journey.
Loving Father, help me accept myself and my faults and know that You love me just as I am.

Let Down Your Net

Simon answered, “Master, we’ve worked hard all night and haven’t caught anything. But because you say so, I will let down the nets.”—Luke 5:5 (NIV)
Do you respond to God’s instructions as Peter did, and “let down your net” simply because God says so? The next time you are discouraged and confused about a situation, have faith and know that He will provide.
Lord, I know You work in mysterious ways to perform Your wonders. Because You say so, I will do it.

No Words Necessary

In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans.—Romans 8:26 (NIV)
When you are so overcome that you do not have words—know that you are not alone. God’s love is so great that when your emotions are too intense to pray, the Holy Spirit intercedes for you. When words fail, His presence takes over.
Loving God, when my pain is too deep for words, I am comforted to know You still hear me.

From Sorrow to Strength

Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?”—John 11:25–26 (NIV)
Theologian Frederick Buechner wrote, “Even the saddest things can become, once we have made peace with them, a source of wisdom and strength.” Grief and sorrow are an inevitable part of life, but with faith and God’s Word, you can trudge through the pain to a place of peace and strength.
Loving God, when I am in the midst of pain and loss, may the peace of Your presence surround me.
