Grow into Your Dreams

Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.—Psalm 37:4 (ESV)
C. S. Lewis said, “You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.” It is never too late to be who you want to be. Open your heart to new hopes and dreams. Say goodbye to goals that have become outdated. Let go of beliefs that you have outgrown. Look to the future, knowing that everything is possible with God’s help.
Heavenly Father, remind me that I am never too old to pursue my dreams.

A Grateful Start

Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; because this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.—1 Thessalonians 5:16–18 (NIV)

Lord, my grateful heart is filled with Your light, which will comfort and guide me through the bright days ahead.

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

Peace in God’s Word

The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.—John 1:14 (NIV)
“In the beginning…” The Bible opens with this profound truth (Genesis 1:1): God fills the past, the present and the future. Yet, He took on flesh and came to live with us human beings. Why? Because His love is so deep and so strong, it never ends.
Dear God, at the start of this brand-new year, guide me to make a difference in this world for Your glory.

Jesus Said, “Follow Me”

As Jesus went on from there, he saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax collector’s booth. “Follow me,” he told him, and Matthew got up and followed him.—Matthew 9:9 NIV

In the above verse, Matthew leaves his sinful ways behind to follow Jesus. This passage shows that Jesus came to those who needed His help to right their ways. He did not come to the righteous. He went to those in need of His love and mercy.

Lord, I will follow You all of the days of my life.

Nothing Is Hidden

Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account.—Hebrews 4:13 NIV

Nothing is hidden from God. As Charles Swindoll said, “God knows our complexities and quirks; He ‘gets’ us better than our closest friends. Best of all, He cares.” God is with you throughout the day, lighting your path and guiding you with His wisdom.

Heavenly Father, I’m overwhelmed by Your love for me. You understand me better than anyone.

God’s Little Instructions

Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, “This is the way; walk in it.”—Isaiah 30:21 (NIV)

God’s Instructions aren’t always big, momentous life-changing moments. Often He gives us seemingly small instructions, little nudges to point us in the right direction. God is speaking to you all the time. Incline your ear and heart to His words.

Dear Lord, I want to hear and follow Your instructions big and small. Fulfill Your work in my life.
