Today's daily devotion
Choose Better!
Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.—Psalm 51:10 (NIV)
There are many sayings about how we handle loss and difficult situations. That our reaction to devastating experiences can either make one bitter or better; our personal tragedies can either define or refine. Reflect on your life and your way of handling adversity. Ask God to help you release the pain and hard feelings that linger after loss and turn those feelings into something positive.
Dear Lord, when I feel broken hold me close and comfort me with Your perfect peace.
