Steadfast in Faith
May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.—Romans 15:13 (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.

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.—Romans 15:13 (NIV)

But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, so that it will not be obvious to others that you are fasting, but only to your Father, who is unseen; and your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.—Matthew 6:17–18 (NIV)

The Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans.—Romans 8:26 (NIV)
