The Humility of True Power

Let the light of your face shine on us.—Psalm 4:6 (NIV)
If your mind wanders looking for something to worry about, try a different approach instead. Make a mental list of times in your life when you experienced the grace of God’s watchful care. Recall moments when you were worried and despite your dark thoughts, things turned out fine. He took care of you.
Heavenly Father, shine Your heavenly light upon me. Guide me to peace, happiness and contentment.

The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.—John 3:8 (NIV)
