The Faith to Face Uncertainty

Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be in dread of them, for it is the Lord your God who goes with you. He will not leave you or forsake you.—Deuteronomy 31:6 (ESV)

Release Your Fear of Failure

Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.—2 Corinthians 4:16–17 (NIV)  
Norman Vincent Peale said, “Fear can infect us early in life until eventually it cuts a deep groove of apprehension in all our thinking. To counteract it, let faith, hope and courage enter your thinking. Fear is strong, but faith is stronger yet.” God wants you to let go of your desire to be perfect. Instead, He desires that you learn from your mistakes and work toward being better every day. Striving for perfection will not make you great, but not giving up—will!  
Lord, help me release my fear of failure and go boldly forward.

Who Do You Say He Is?

Once when Jesus was praying in private and his disciples were with him, he asked them, “Who do the crowds say I am?”—Luke 9:18 (NIV)
Preacher and author Frederick Buechner wrote, “A Christian is one who points at Christ and says, ‘I can’t prove a thing, but there’s something about His eyes and His voice. There’s something about the way He carries His head, His hands, the way He carries His cross—the way He carries me.’” Today, put your total trust in Him.
Dear Jesus, I know that You are the Christ!

Your God Knows Your Future

Instead, you ought to say, “If it is the Lord’s will, we will live and do this or that.”—James 4:15 (NIV)
James reminds us that though we might believe we know the future, we are not in control. Planning is necessary, but we run into trouble when we begin to think that we have the power to direct the events of the days ahead.
Lord, I know You have great plans for me. Help me surrender my desire to control things. Help me trust You.

The Light of My Life

When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”—John 8:12 (NIV)
Just as the moon illuminates the night sky by reflecting the sun’s light, you too can light up the darkness by reflecting God’s will. When you become a chariot of His divine energy, you radiate His glorious light into the world.
Lord, fill me with Your light so I may shine away the darkness in another’s life.

Your Desired Haven

He stilled the storm to a whisper; the waves of the sea were hushed. They were glad when it grew calm, and he guided them to their desired haven.—Psalm 107:29–30 (NIV)
Scripture teaches us the power of being patient and calm. Things happen in life that are beyond your control, yet you can react knowing that all is well because of your strong faith. Always. He will guide you to your desired haven.
Lord, there is freedom in knowing that despite obstacles, I can calmly move forward because You are beside me.

Rise and Try Again

For though the righteous fall seven times, they rise again, but the wicked stumble when calamity strikes.—Proverbs 24:16 (NIV)
Making mistakes is a necessary part of living a fulfilled life; stumbling and falling are all a part of growing. Let go of any fear of failure, and focus on doing your best. Be proud of your wonderfully imperfect journey.
Lord God, if I become stuck because I am afraid of trying something new for fear of making a mistake, remind me that I am getting better every day. Remind me that mistakes pave the way to success.

Your Stronghold of Faith

The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.—Psalm 18:2 (NIV)
Unexpected and challenging changes—you lose a job or feel betrayed by a friend—can be difficult to cope with. Yet when you reflect on your journey, you recognize that despite your fear and resistance, the difficult times brought wisdom and compassion. Your faith grew, and so did your spirit.
Lord, comfort me and guide me when life takes an unpleasant turn. Help me accept what has happened and trust that You are in control.

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.
