Drive Out Barbs and Thorns
But if you do not drive out the inhabitants of the land, those you allow to remain will become barbs in your eyes and thorns in your sides. They will give you trouble in the land where you will live.—Numbers 33:55 (NIV)
The things in your life that come between you and your relationship with God become “barbs in your eyes.” Reflect on anything that is blocking your faith journey and pray for guidance on how to live your life to proclaim His glory.
Dear Lord, guide me in everything that I do. Save me from temptation.

Blooming With God’s Grace
And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these.—Matthew 6:28–29 (NIV)
Faithful Stewardship
Be sure you know the condition of your flocks, give careful attention to your herds; for riches do not endure forever, and a crown is not secure for all generations.—Proverbs 27:23–24 (NIV)
