Walk in the Light

Walk in the light, as he is in the light…—1 John 1:7 (ESV)
Gratitude brings light to your spirit! When you focus on your blessings and praise God for the many great experiences, people and gifts He has given you, your entire perspective changes. Train yourself to fight the dark feelings of worry and want with “light” feelings of gratitude.
God, You are the giver of all good things. Because of You, even in my darkest hour I know that my life will soon be better.

Go the Right Way

If you go the wrong way—to the right or to the left—you will hear a voice behind you saying, “This is the right way. You should go this way.”—Isaiah 30:21 (NCV)
Jesus provides guidance on the best pathway for your life. When you are headed in the wrong direction, He can guide you back to the right path. Make it part of your prayer practice to check in with Him and ask for reassurance that you are on track.
Lord, guide me on this journey of life!

Heal Your Hard Feelings

You, Lord, are forgiving and good, abounding in love to all who call to you. Hear my prayer, Lord; listen to my cry for mercy. When I am in distress, I call to you, because you answer me.—Psalm 86:5–7 (NIV)
Corrie ten Boom wrote, “Forgiveness is the key that unlocks the door of resentment and the handcuffs of hatred. It is a power that breaks the chains of bitterness and the shackles of selfishness.” If you are struggling with forgiving someone, pray for God to help heal your hard feelings.
Divine Healer, I am ready to let go of my resentment. Fill me with Your peace.

Behind the Curtain

We have this as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul, a hope that enters into the inner place behind the curtain.—Hebrews 6:19 (ESV)
Sometimes, out of nowhere, emotions can overcome you and leave you confused and upset. When this happens, turn to God. Ask Him to shed His light on whatever is troubling your heart. Allow His presence to fill you with hope.
Lord, thank You for being my anchor, steadfast and strong, upholding me and steadying my spirit. I am okay because of You.

God’s Love Exceeds Expectations

The women said to Naomi: “Praise be to the Lord, who this day has not left you without a guardian-redeemer. May he become famous throughout Israel! He will renew your life and sustain you in your old age. For your daughter-in-law, who loves you and who is better to you than seven sons, has given him birth.”—Ruth 4:14–15 (NIV)
Naomi must have been distressed and upset when her life took a series of devastating turns that she had not anticipated. And yet, the Book of Ruth ends with Naomi filled with joy. Perhaps you are going through a time when your life doesn’t live up to your expectations. Turn to God—and keep the faith.
Heavenly Father, help me feel Your peace and know that Your gift is coming.

Sing a New Song

Sing to the Lord, praise his name; proclaim his salvation day after day.—Psalm 96:2 (NIV)
Hans Christian Andersen wrote, “Where words fail, music speaks.” Sometimes music can help us feel closer to God, whether it’s classical or praise music, or perhaps a joyful pop song that lifts your spirit when you need it most. If you are looking for a new way to pray, turn on your favorite radio station or playlist and sing along, knowing that your voice is heard by God.
Great Maker of Music, I will sing to You, Lord, a new song!

Fix Yourself First

For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.—Matthew 7:2 (NIV)
Before you judge someone, take a moment and reflect on how you respond to your own shortcomings. Do you work on improving yourself by being more accepting, less anxious and more cheerful? Pray for God to help you fix your own faults.
Lord, guide me to place my focus and efforts on improving myself.
