Be Even-Tempered

A person’s wisdom yields patience; it is to one’s glory to overlook an offense.—Proverbs 19:11 (NIV)

Thomas Fuller wrote, “Two things a man should never be angry at: what he can help, and what he cannot help.” The next time you feel your temper rising, take a deep breath and rise above provocation. Let this verse guide your thinking.

Lord, help me to keep control of my emotions so that I react to upsetting situations with patience and understanding.

Pleasing the Lord

On the contrary, we speak as those approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel. We are not trying to please people but God, who tests our hearts.—1 Thessalonians 2:4 (NIV)

The next time you have a big decision to make, instead of thinking about yourself or others, focus on pleasing God. Spend quiet time asking Him to guide you. Commit to living your life in a way that honors Him.

Almighty God, You are the center of my life—I trust You with my decisions.

The Power of Humility

All of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another.—1 Peter 5:5 (NIV)

St. Augustine wrote, “If you should ask me what are the ways of God, I would tell you that the first is humility, the second is humility, and the third is humility. Not that there are no other precepts to give, but if humility does not precede all that we do, our efforts are fruitless.” A humble heart is essential to spiritual growth.

Lord, help me to walk humbly with You. Replace any feelings of pride or arrogance with love of service for Your glory.

For the Lord God is a sun and shield: the Lord will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.—Psalm 84:11 (KJV)

Lead Me to the Rock

From the ends of the earth I call to you, I call as my heart grows faint; lead me to the rock that is higher than I.—Psalm 61:2 (NIV)

In the above verse, David was alone and far from home when he cried out for help. “My heart is overwhelmed,” he told the Lord. When you are distressed, pray for God, the Rock of Salvation, to bring you comfort and stability.

Lord, when my heart grows faint, lead me to a Rock that is higher than I.

Poor and Needy

Hear me, Lord, and answer me, for I am poor and needy.—Psalm 86:1 (NIV)

David calls himself “poor and needy” a handful of times in the Psalms. When you talk to God, do you openly admit your feelings with the same honesty? What exactly do you need from Jesus? Is it something earthly, or a desire of your heart? Is it simply to feel His presence and know He is your true source of comfort? Reach out and tell Him.

Lord, I am poor and needy…
