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.

Do you follow the Lord passionately and completely, just as Caleb and Joshua did? When you feel the strain of life’s journey, trust Him wholeheartedly. Ask Him to clear the way before you. He will lift you from distress and comfort you.

God made the heavens and the earth, and there is nothing that He can’t do or make in your life. When you are facing difficult times, pray and ask for insight on your situation. Know that He is with you, and that because of His presence you can have hope for tomorrow.

Ever y day, God sends blessings and gifts to encourage and guide us. Yet there are times when our heads are down, working out a problem, or we’re busy with the day’s errands and we fail to notice His touch. Today, be aware of His messages of beauty and love.

The hearts of the disciples were “set on fire” when they listened to Jesus. In your own prayer life, make time to be still and receive His messages. Open your heart to receive the life-changing power of His Word.

The Bible calls your body a temple of the Holy Spirit. When you are stuck in a traffic jam or waiting in a long line at a grocery store, remember this verse and take a moment and go inward to pray. God is ever-present. His unfailing love lives in your heart.

As you grow your faith, realize that there is nothing in this world that you have to do alone. God will always be with you, guiding you and helping you through life’s unexpected twists and turns on the journey. Strive to live in harmony with His will.

Today, ask God to help you focus on one specific quality about you that pleases Him. Then ask Him how you should use that quality to bring blessings to others. Spend a minute or two in prayer, feeling His joy.

There are circumstances in life beyond your control. Instead of putting your energy into trying to manipulate the situation, focus your faith and trust in the One who knows what is best and will help you through life’s challenges and adventures.

When you feel depleted and need spiritual refreshment, take a moment and silently pray, “Come, Holy Spirit.” Ask God to renew you with His spirit. Close your eyes and envision His life-giving energy flowing through you.

Spend time with God. The more you know Him and aspire to be like Him, the more you will be guided by His wisdom. No matter what you are going through, trust that He will help you persevere. God’s steadfast and faithful love will see you through every challenge.
