Shake the Dust Off
If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, leave that home or town and shake the dust off your feet.—Matthew 10:14 (NIV)
Pray all the time.—1 Thessalonians 5:17 (MSG)
Think of every moment as an opportunity to pray. Pray the first thing in the morning. Pray on your commute to work. Don’t worry about what to say or if you should be sharing things that may seem small or trivial. Invite Jesus to help guide the details of your life. Pray, pray and keep on praying.
Heavenly Father, I want to make every moment a prayer to You.
If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, leave that home or town and shake the dust off your feet.—Matthew 10:14 (NIV)
At midnight I will rise to give thanks unto thee because of thy righteous judgments.—Psalm 119:62 (KJV)
Worry takes a tremendous amount of energy and often robs us of sleep and joy. Pray for the strength to follow the Lord’s instruction and let go of your fears. Take His words to heart—“Fear not!”—and feel a spark of excitement grow into joy.
