An Awesome Truth

We say with confidence, “The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?”—Hebrews 13:6 (NIV)
When you feel upset or overpowered and need a boost of strength, turn to this verse. God is your helper! Let your soul rest in Him. He is tirelessly working on your behalf; all is safe in His hands. He will fill you with love and peace.
God our Protector, I know that You are accomplishing Your plan and cause everything to work together for the good of those who love You.

Feeding on Ashes

Are you “feeding on ashes” rather than nourishing yourself with the Word of God? Often our hearts and minds mislead us as we attempt to replace our faith in God with something else. Looking for contentment or satisfaction anywhere else is a lie.
Almighty God, You are my God, a God of grace and truth, and I serve You.

The Faith to Persevere

We share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory. I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.—Romans 8:17–18 (NIV)

Travel with God

The Lord directs the steps of the godly. He delights in every detail of their lives.—Psalm 37:23 (NLT)
Everyone knows the saying, “Man plans, and God laughs.” Just when you think your life is on a straight trajectory, circumstances can change in an instant. God knows what your future holds. So when it feels as if your life has suddenly gone off-track, hold on to your faith and travel where God calls you to go.
Lord God, I’ll do my best to be faithful and flexible, to follow Your lead wherever it takes me.

Strength in Balance

A person can do nothing better than to eat and drink and find satisfaction in their own toil. This too, I see, is from the hand of God, for without him, who can eat or find enjoyment?—Ecclesiastes 2:24–25 (NIV)
Are you looking to lead a more balanced life? Perhaps work or stress has taken over time that would be better spent enriching your spiritual life. When you feel off-center, turn to His Word. Scripture will help guide you to surrender your will for His, and in doing so, you will release your stress, have more energy and discover the perfect balance.
Dear Lord, fill me with Your Spirit—and guide me to take the time I need to focus on You.
