An Act of Humility

As she stood behind him at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears. Then she wiped them with her hair, kissed them and poured perfume on them.—Luke 7:38 (NIV)
When you feel burdened by guilt, remember Mary Magdalene. Her act of washing Jesus’ feet with her tears was a powerful demonstration of repentance and humility. Embrace such humility and seek God’s forgiveness.
Lord, help me to seek Your forgiveness with a humble heart.

Wednesday of Holy Week

“Abba, Father,” he said, “everything is possible for you. Take this cup from me. Yet  not what I will, but what you will.”—MARK 14:36 (NIV)
Today, Wednesday of Holy Week, reflect on Jesus’ quiet preparation and the depth of His surrender, even in the face of unimaginable suffering. Let it inspire you to surrender your own struggles and fears to God, trusting in His divine plan.
Dear Lord, give me the strength to trust in Your will.

Seek God’s Wisdom

He came to Jesus at night and said, “Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the signs you are doing if God were not with him.”—John 3:2 (NIV)
Just like Nicodemus, who sought Jesus in the night, you too may have questions and doubts. But remember, seeking God’s wisdom is a journey, often filled with questions. Embrace these questions and seek His wisdom.
Lord, help me to embrace my questions and seek Your wisdom.

Embrace Your Unique Gifts

Again the Israelites cried out to the Lord, and he gave them a deliverer—Ehud, a left-handed man, the son of Gera the Benjamite.—Judges 3:15 (NIV)
Just like Ehud, you possess unique gifts that have been granted to you by God for a special purpose. Even Ehud’s uncommon left-handedness was used by God to deliver His people. So, don’t hesitate to embrace your own uniqueness and have unshakable faith. Trust that God can use your gifts for His glory.
Lord, help me trust Your purpose for me.

Help From Above

There the angel of the Lord appeared to him in flames of fire from within a bush. Moses saw that though the bush was on fire it did not burn up.—Exodus 3:2 (NIV)
Signs from God may not always be as obvious as a burning bush, but most believers have heard the still, small voice that prompts all those who listen. Whenever you are struggling with a difficult decision, ask God for help. He is an expert in dealing with complex situations.
Dear Lord, give me the strength to wait patiently for Your guidance and counsel.

Refuge in His Fortress

Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.”—Psalm 91:1–2 (NIV)

God walks with you, offering His unwavering protection. Trust in His promise to guard and guide you, and rest in the peaceful shadow of the Almighty.
Dear Lord, strengthen my faith to trust in Your love and protection.

The Grace of Mistakes

For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.—Romans 3:23–24 (NIV)
It’s important to remember that everyone makes mistakes. However, it’s not the mistake that defines you, but how you respond. Rather than feeling guilty or ashamed, try to see your mistakes as opportunities for growth. Remember that God’s grace is always sufficient for you, and His love covers all your shortcomings.
Merciful Father, help me learn from my mistakes and remember that Your grace is more than enough for me.

The Righteous Stand

Pure and genuine religion in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress and refusing to let the world corrupt you.—James 1:27 (NLT)
If you feel like you’re not making progress in your spiritual journey, try shifting your focus toward God. Reflect on who He is and all the things He has done for you. The Bible reminds us to serve others and put their needs before our own. When you ask God to bring opportunities for you to serve Him by helping others, you’re not only fulfilling His commandment but also becoming a better person in the process.
Dear God, guide me to put my faith into action and serve others selflessly.

God’s Abundant Provision

And he directed the people to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, he gave thanks and broke the loaves. Then he gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people.—Matthew 14:19 (NIV)
Just as Jesus multiplied five loaves and two fish to feed many people, He can also multiply your resources to meet your needs. It’s important to remember that God is not limited by earthly constraints; His abundance is limitless. Trust in His ability to provide for you, even when it may seem impossible.
Heavenly Father, grant me the faith to believe that You will provide for all my needs in Your perfect timing.
