Seek His Approval

For they loved human praise more than praise from God.—John 12:43 (NIV)
Are you using your gifts to serve others? It’s easy to fall into the trap of wanting praise from others—and not focusing on the One who truly matters. Search your heart and align your thoughts and actions with His will and your gifts.
Dear Lord, I want to live my life in a way that serves others and makes You proud.

We have spoken freely to you, Corinthians, and opened wide our hearts to you.—2 Corinthians 6:11 (NIV)

Get Ready for Your New Thing

“Remember not the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.”—Isaiah 43:18–19 (ESV)
Are you looking for a spark to bring a little magic into your life?

Today, ask God to help you experience something new!
Lord, You have created so many amazing things. Wow me today with something I’ve never experienced.

The Message in Every Moment

You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you!—Isaiah 26:3 (NLT)
Sometimes it can feel as if you are rushing through life. When you hurry, you miss out on the joy of the moment, and everything can feel out of sync. God never intended for you to strain and stress through life. You are here to nurture your faith, and that means taking on the tasks you need to do in time with the rhythm of your soul.
Almighty Father, help me slow down and fully experience the message and meaning in every moment.

Watch out that no one deceives you.—Mark 13:5 (NIV)

Draw close to Him and rely on His wisdom and guidance to lead you to the true meaning. Center your mind and your heart on Him.
Heavenly Father, I turn to You to help strengthen my discernment. Guide me on the right path.

Uniquely Blessed

Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.—Matthe w 5:48 (NIV)

Lord, when I am hard on myself—judging myself against an ideal version—guide me back to this beautiful truth. I am right where I am supposed to be.

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 Say goodbye to goals that have become outdated.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.

Think Good Thoughts

In conclusion, my friends, fill your minds with those things that are good and that deserve praise: things that are true, noble, right, pure, lovely, and honorable.—Philippians 4:8 (GNT)

The next time you feel overcome with worry or dark thinking, turn to God and bring heavenly light into your life!
