Fear Not
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.

Put Out the Fire
When the disciples James and John saw this, they said, “Lord, do you want us to call fire down from heaven to consume them?”—Luke 9:54 (CEB)
James and John were humiliated and angry when they asked for God to call the fire down. Revenge is not the answer. When you are upset, feeling hurt and rejected, ask God to heal your pain and change your focus to love and compassion.
Dear Lord, keep my spirit in check. Help me douse flames of revenge with Your love.
