Maker of Miracles

Give Your Worries to God

Therefore, I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothes?—Matthew 6:25 (NIV)
Is the cloak of fear affecting your faith? Do you worry about big things and little things, what-ifs and what has already happened? In the above verse, Jesus tells us not to worry. Instead, put all your trust in Him.
Dear God, I give You my worry list so that You may give me Your peace.

Less Judging, More Loving

Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart.—Proverbs 3:3 (NIV)

Dear God, help me to be less critical and more loving. Guide me to approach others with compassion, patience and love.

Your Best Defense

For the Lord your God is the one who goes with you to fight for you against your enemies to give you victory.—Deuteronomy 20:4 (NIV)
When you are trying to overcome a bad habit and feel as if you are facing utter defeat, turn to Jesus and say, “I doubt I can do this, but I know that You can.” Identify the enemy that is causing you harm, whether it’s an unhealthy diet, too much social media or negative self-talk, and know that God can bring victory.
Lord God, please help me battle my negative thoughts and actions. I know that with Your help I can succeed.
