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)
Today's daily devotion
You Already Have It
I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances.—Philippians 4:11 (NIV)
Some people make the mistake of believing contentment and inner peace are dependent upon things out of reach. Instead of falling into this trap, reflect on the blessings you have right now. Begin with the simple and obvious: You are breathing, you have a relationship with God, the sky is gorgeous. Smile. Contentment and inner peace are right here, within you, right now.
Lord, when I feel restless, remind me that You have given me the freedom to be content and live righteously, right here and now.

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.
