When You Feel Tested
In all this, Job did not sin by charging God with wrongdoing.—Job 1:22 (NIV)
Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.—Philippians 2:3-4 (NIV)
Insecurities can lead a person to hold on too tightly—to relationships, jobs and possessions. Worrying over a loss robs you of enjoying the moment and can make you selfish and possessive. God intended for us to have a full life, one that is not full of fear and need—but one that is filled with His pure love.
Heavenly Father, I come to You with an open heart. Heal my vulnerable places so that I am secure and complete.
In all this, Job did not sin by charging God with wrongdoing.—Job 1:22 (NIV)
A heart at peace gives life to the body, but envy rots the bones.—Proverbs 14:30 (NIV)
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.—1 John 1:9 (NIV)
