No Need to Worry

Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.—Romans 12:2 (NIV)

Focus on this beautiful truth: The Spirit of God dwells inside you, and because of this you can tap into His strength, power and wisdom at any moment. When you find yourself thinking negative thoughts or fearing your future, pray and feel His presence.

Merciful God, I am in awe that a spark of Your Light from the beginning of creation dwells inside of me.

Think About These Things

Finally, beloved, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is pleasing, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence and if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.—Philippians 4:8 (NRSV)

Arguing with God

“How then can I dispute with him? How can I find words to argue with him?”—Job 9:14 (NIV)

Have you ever tried to argue with God only to realize the error of your thinking? God is never wrong. Yet, by openly disagreeing with Him, you often open a dialogue that will help you better understand His ways. Approach Him with honest prayer. Your most important action is to turn to Him.

Heavenly Father, I may not be happy with what is happening, but who am I to argue with You?

Checking in with God

David said to God, “Was it not I who ordered the fighting men to be counted? I, the shepherd have sinned and done wrong. These are but sheep. What have they done? Lord my God, let your hand fall on me and my family, but do not let this plague remain on your people.”—1 Chronicles 21:17 (NIV)

Wrongdoings often have a domino effect. David was forgiven by God, but there were consequences to his actions that had already caused damage. When you are at a crossroads and considering what to do, check in with God first. Ask for His guidance.

Dear Lord, when I am tempted to make poor choices, show me the way. Keep me upright.
