The Other Side of Grief

He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.—Isaiah 53:3 (KJV)
In the above verse, Jesus is “a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief.” When you feel alone with your grief, know that God understands your pain. Share your heartache with Him and take comfort in realizing He fully understands what you are going through. He will support you and guide you to the other side of grief.
Lord, sometimes I feel no one else understands the depths of my hurt. But You do! You are the Source of my healing. I am not alone in my pain.

Embrace Challenging Verses

All your words are true; all your righteous laws are eternal.—Psalm 119:160 (NIV)
Some people want to ignore parts of the Bible that seem challenging to live by. How do you face Scripture that is hard to accept or understand? Part of your faith journey depends on knowing that you can’t have a “take it or leave it” approach to His Word. When you come across Scripture that you need to digest further—jot it down—and pray for His help to see the truth of His Word.
All-knowing God, I turn to Your Word for direction. Guide me through the challenging passages so I can fully connect with You.

Bathed in His Grace

Grace be with all those who love our Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity.—Ephesians 6:24 (NKJV)
This verse reminds us that when we love Jesus, we are bathed in grace. We view the world through a different lens, helping us see the purpose and beauty around us, bolstering our faith when we face fear and giving us the added boost we need to pick up and go on when we fall.
Lord, because of You, I have grace—and as the apostle Paul writes, Your grace is sufficient.

Right Your Compass

Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.—Galatians 1:10 (NIV)
Reflect on your recent actions and ask yourself if you were focused on pleasing people or pleasing God. Jesus has called us to be His servants. Let go of the urge to make everyone around you happy. Instead, seek to please Jesus—that is your true path to happiness.
Lord, help me to cast aside the burden of being a people pleaser. Your approval is the only one I need.

Showing Up

Let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another, especially now that the day of his return is drawing near.—Hebrews 10:25 (NLT)
The Greek word koinonia appears in the Bible in the context of the importance of participating or simply showing up. When we attend events or show up for people, we support them and let them know that we care. Fellowship is an essential part of your faith. Are you present for those that need you?
Lord, I am so grateful for the people You have placed in my life. Guide me to recognize opportunities where I need to show up.

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)
When you are tunneling through dark times, have faith and put your hope in Jesus, the Light of the World. Know that every difficult path offers lessons and blessings that will help you grow. Trust that God is by your side. He will not forsake you.
Lord, life’s trials test me, but I trust You to help me through the dark moments. I have faith and will persevere.

His Heavenly Counsel

Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence?—Psalm 139:7 (NIV)
God is an infinite presence in your life. His love, strength and mercy are limitless. He is omnipresent and beyond our understanding, and yet He has revealed Himself to us through His Word. When you need to feel close to Him, open your Bible.
Lord, Your infinite presence fills me with abundance. Thank You for giving me the heavenly counsel I need.

Embrace This Command

Therefore encourage one another and build each other up.—1 Thessalonians 5:11 (NIV)
Poet Maya Angelou wrote, “People will forget what you said. People will forget what you did. But people will never forget how you made them feel.” When you embrace God’s command in the above verse, your efforts can have a positive—and lasting—effect on another’s life.
Heavenly Father, guide me to build up others. I’m ready to help.

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.
