A Lesson in Abundance
All these people gave their gifts out of their wealth; but she out of her poverty put in all she had to live on.—Luke 21:4 (NIV)

When You Stumble
As it is written: “See, I lay in Zion a stone that causes people to stumble and a rock that makes them fall, and the one who believes in him will never be put to shame.”—Romans 9:33 (NIV)
In any given situation, it’s easy to focus on what God should be doing—rather than accept what He is actually doing. If we seek God through our own works we will stumble, but if we faithfully depend on Him we will experience righteousness and salvation.
Our Heavenly Father, I surrender myself into Your hands. Through faith and humble dependence upon You I will not stumble.

Begin the Day with Gratitude
Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.—James 1:17 (NIV)
Direction for Your Soul
For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.—Hebrews 4:12 (NIV)
