Fellow Workers in God’s Service

For we are co-workers in God’s service; you are God’s field, God’s building.—1 Corinthians 3:9 (NIV)
You are a worker with God, and as a Christian you have a part to play in His plan to help others. Do you accept His invitation to be part of His great purpose? Will you commit to helping Him by serving others?
Dear Lord, I am Your co-worker. I am here, ready to work alongside You.

Safe in His Care

He says, “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”—Psalm 46:10 (NIV)
This famous verse holds an obvious truth. Yet many of us forget to find a quiet place—to be still and center our thoughts and focus on Him, the God of Miracles, the God who loves and cares for you!
Lord, Your peace is always there waiting for me. You are a Great God, and my life is safe in Your hands.

His Joy, Your Heart

Nehemiah said, “Go and enjoy choice food and sweet drinks, and send some to those who have nothing prepared. This day is holy to our Lord. Do not grieve, for the joy of the Lord is your strength.”—Nehemiah 8:10 (NIV)
The joy of the Lord is your strength. When you delight in Him, you witness the power of prayer. Your faith develops and your hope grows bright! Come and sit in the power of His light. When you are at home with Him, you are blessed with His joy.
Dear Lord, may the Light of heaven shine in my heart.

No Doubt

But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!”—Matthew 14:30 (NIV)
When Peter cried out to Jesus in the above verse, the Lord pulled him up. “Why did you doubt?” He asked him. When the storms of life crash down on you, how do you react? And when God lifts you up with an opportunity, do you recognize His great power? Why do you doubt?
Lord, You’ve rescued me countless times when I cried out for You to save me. Help me to feel secure the next time a storm is approaching.

Dare to Depend on Him

On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you.—John 14:20 (NIV)
When you depend on God, you open your heart to miracles. You let go of needing to control everything and recognize that your weakness draws in His strength. Decide to willingly take His hand as He leads you on a magnificent adventure.
Heavenly Father, I receive Your grace and abundance with a thankful heart.

Happy Mother’s Day

When Jesus saw his mother there, and the disciple whom he loved standing nearby, he said to her, “Woman, here is your son,” and to the disciple, “Here is your mother.” From that time on, this disciple took her into his home.—John 19:26–27 (NIV)
It is impossible to imagine the excruciating sorrow Jesus’ mother felt watching her son perish on the cross. Among His final words, He instructed John to, “Take care of her.” Today, on Mother’s Day, may God bless and take care of mothers everywhere.
Dear Lord, today I pray for all the mothers in the world. May they feel Your comfort and peace.

Share His Gifts

Mother Teresa is quoted as saying, “God gives us things to share; God doesn’t give us things to hold.” Giving is an expression of our love, humanity and purpose. The best gift we can give ourselves is the joy we receive when helping and giving to others.
Dear God, guide me to give my time, energy and love generously.

Worry-Free Todays

Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.—Mathew 6:34 (NIV)
If you struggle with worry, the above verse can help. The next time you find yourself preoccupied with something that may or may not happen tomorrow, remind yourself of the words of Jesus. Stay with Him. Stay present.
Dear Lord, You are the peace-giver. Thank You for this moment. Thank You for today.

Spring Clean Your Spirit

Cleanse me with hyssop, and I will be clean; wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.—Psalm 51:7 (NIV)
Take a moment and reflect on your thoughts and emotions. Go through your life and see what is getting in the way of your relationship with God. Ask Him for guidance as you dig deep into feelings you are ready to release.

You Will Not Fall

As it is written: “See, I lay in Zion a stone that causes people to stumble and a rock that makes them fall, and the one who believes in him will never be put to shame.—Romans 9:33 (NIV)
If you seek God through your own works you will stumble, but if you faithfully rely on Him, you will experience righteousness and salvation. God offers you His grace and His Word. Trust in Jesus and you will not fall.
Our Heavenly Father, You have my heart. Through faith and humble reliance upon You I will not stumble.
