You Already Have It

I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances.—Philippians 4:11 (NIV)
Some people make the mistake of believing contentment and inner peace are dependent upon things out of reach. Instead of falling into this trap, reflect on the blessings you have right now. Begin with the simple and obvious: You are breathing, you have a relationship with God, the sky is gorgeous. Smile. Contentment and inner peace are right here, within you, right now.
Lord, when I feel restless, remind me that You have given me the freedom to be content and live righteously, right here and now.

He Always Responds

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.—Psalm 46:1 (ESV)
God is always available. He delights in listening to your prayers and meeting your needs. He is there to calm your heart and reassure you with His love. When you lay out your troubles and ask for His help, He always responds.
Lord God, You are my ever-present help, my anchor! You want what is best for me and help me live my best life.

Face Your Fear

Then David said to Solomon his son, “Be strong and courageous and do it. Do not be afraid and do not be dismayed, for the Lord God, even my God, is with you.”—1 Chronicles 28:20 (ESV)
Have you been in a situation where you made a decision based on fear? When you live your life letting worry or panic control you, you aren’t free. Instead, focus on God’s goodness. His love can help you stand up to whatever is causing you anxiety. With Him by your side, there is nothing to fear.
Lord, because of You I can live my life confidently, boldly making the right choices.

Brighten the Day

Don’t hold back good from those who are worthy of it. Don’t hold it back when you can help.—Proverbs 3:27 (NIRV)
Never underestimate the power that a small gesture of kindness can bring to the world. When you feel the nudge to reach out to someone, pray on their behalf or encourage them with a compliment, don’t hold back. You may never know what your light does for someone who desperately needs it. But God knows.
Light of the World, guide me to be a beacon of Your love, brightening another’s day.

Patience in Hard Times

“You have done a foolish thing,” Samuel said. “You have not kept the command the Lord your God gave you; if you had, he would have established your kingdom over Israel for all time.”—1 Samuel 13:13 (NIV)
Trusting God when things aren’t going your way can be very challenging. In the above passage, Saul felt that he was running out of time. Impatient and worried, he acted against God’s will and suffered the consequences. The next time you are experiencing a waiting period, don’t let your impatience overpower your desire to please God.
Heavenly Father, help me keep the faith and follow Your instructions no matter how difficult it might be.

Direct me in the path of your commands, for there I find delight.—Psalm 119:35 (NIV)
Happiness is cultivated by following the principles found in God’s Word. By following His wisdom and guidance, you will see positive change in your life. When we maintain constant love for one another and choose compassion over judgment, we become open to living a life filled with purpose.
Dear Lord, the future is bright because You are with me.

Your Most Precious Friendship

You are my friends if you do what I command.—John 15:14 (NIV)
One of the most fulfilling relationships you can have is a friendship with Jesus. Reach out to Him when you are feeling weak and alone. Find encouragement, guidance and wisdom by checking in with Him every day and sharing the details of your life with Him. He wants to hear from you.
Lord, You are my faithful friend, loving me unconditionally. You know my potential and are helping me reach it.

The One Who Serves

But you are not to be like that. Instead, the greatest among you should be like the youngest, and the one who rules like the one who serves.—Luke 22:26 (NIV)
Jesus teaches that the most effective leaders are not the most bold or courageous. The best leaders are motivated by serving others; they see people in need and look for ways to help them. How can you be a compassionate leader among your loved ones?
Dear God, may we all lead by serving others and working for the greater good of all.

Reclaim Your Childhood Joy

Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”—Matthew 19:14 (NIV)
Take a moment and reflect on the wonder and joy of childhood. Do you still approach the beauty of the world, the sunrises and flowers, with joyful abandon? God is your Father. He longs for you to accept His gentle reassurance that no matter what questions or concerns are pressing on your heart, you can awaken the spark of joy that lives inside you.
Heavenly Father, when I am feeling burdened by the weight of responsibilities, remind me to lean on You, for You are my Father and I am Your child.

Unpredictable Beauty

Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you preserve my life.—Psalm 138:7 (NIV)
Life is an exciting adventure. As much as we want to believe that we can know what tomorrow, or even next month, will bring, the truth is there is no guarantee that what we plan will happen. The only thing we can truly be sure of is that God watches over us, helping us through life’s ups and downs. He guides us to see the beauty in the present.
Dear Lord, Your promise is unchangeable. Because of You, I can feel safe on this glorious, unpredictable journey.
