Absolute Faith

My heart says of you, “Seek his face!” Your face, Lord, I will seek.—Psalm 27:8 (NIV)
The Bible tells many stories of men who displayed incredible trust. Men like Abraham, trudging up the mountain to sacrifice his beloved son Isaac; Moses, filled with doubts, yet obeying God’s call to lead the Israelites out of Egypt. They had fears, yet remained steadfast in their faith in God.
Lord, I trust You completely. I seek Your face!

Grow in Grace

To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.—Ecclesiastes 3:1 (KJV)
Spring is a season of growth. The budding flowers are beautiful proof of nature’s resilience. Each bloom is a reminder that life is filled with transition. If you are experiencing a challenging time, trust that it is temporary and that every moment in your life serves a purpose in God’s plan—an opportunity for growth.
Heavenly Father, help me remember that hard times help me grow in grace.

Palm Sunday: Hosanna! Blessed Is He

Rejoice greatly, Daughter Zion! Shout, Daughter Jerusalem! See, your king comes to you, righteous and victorious, lowly and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.—Zechariah 9:9 (NIV)
Today, Palm Sunday, is the first day of Holy Week. As Jesus made His triumphant entry into Jerusalem, the crowds cheered and waved palm branches to symbolize His victory. Reflect on Jesus’ passion and thank God for sending His son to walk on earth among us.
Dear Lord, may I always be mindful of the sacrifice You made for me.

For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.—2 Timothy 1:7 (NIV)
God wants you to have peace even when peace seems impossibly far away. When you need courage or help with a problem, turn to Him. He will give you the strength to face the day ahead. He will comfort you with His peace.

Unfinished Work

Now finish the work, so that your eager willingness to do it may be matched by your completion of it, according to your means.—2 Corinthians 8:11 (NIV)

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.

The Grateful One

One of them, when he saw he was healed, came back, praising God in a loud voice. He threw himself at Jesus’ feet and thanked him—and he was a Samaritan. Jesus asked, “Were not all ten cleansed? Where are the other nine?”—Luke 17:15–17 (NIV)
Who hasn’t read the above verse and thought, “Why did only one person thank Him for healing such a disfiguring disease?” Yet, when we take a moment and recognize the many blessings that we have forgotten to praise God for, the mistake of the nine lepers becomes more understandable. Today, thank God for your faith and the new life His Word provides.
Heavenly Father, my heart overflows with thanksgiving for Your endless forgiveness and the countless blessings You have showered on my life.

Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine.—Isaiah 43:1 (ESV)

God’s Work in Progress

Being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.—Philippians 1:6 (NIV)
God has planned your life down to the last detail. Even when you doubt His path or become distracted, you can trust that His wisdom and guidance will lead you to a life of purpose. Your experiences and everything that you are going through right now are designed to help transform you into the very best you can be.
Lord, the next time I feel that my life is not on track, remind me that I am a work in progress. I know that You have an amazing plan for me.
