Do you feel tired and overwhelmed by all you want to do in a day? Ask God to help you prioritize your goals. Focus on the peace of His presence. Turn to Him for guidance on what is important right now and what can wait for another day.

God is the Master Builder, and you are a living stone that is a piece of His foundation. Your role, according to Peter, is to declare the praises of His work and glorify Him in all that you do. Take that to heart: You are a living rock in God’s spiritual house.

When you need a boost of energy or an answer to a problem, draw from the power of God, the omnipotent, all-knowing and all-powerful Helper who is always with you. Because of His help, there is no reason to be weary. Pray and ask Him to fill you with His Spirit.

Wrongdoings often have a domino effect. David was forgiven by God, but there were consequences to his actions that had already caused damage. When you are at a crossroads and considering what to do, check in with God first. Ask for His guidance.
