Respond Selflessly

I called to the Lord, who is worthy of praise, and I have been saved from my enemies.—Psalm 18:3 (NIV)
How do you react when you are upset by a disappointing outcome? Instead of becoming angry or hurt, turn to Jesus and ask Him for the grace to respond selflessly and to trust Him for guidance.
Lord, I trust that like a shepherd leads His flock, You are taking me down the right path for my life’s journey.

Live a Victorious Life

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here.—2 Corinthians 5:17 (NIV)
Change can be difficult, but Jesus offers the opportunity for an entirely new way of thinking. The best part is that when you invite Him to take over, you don’t have to change yourself. He transforms you and guides you to begin with a new perspective and a trusting heart.
Lord, You are all I need to live a victorious life.
