Your Stronghold of Faith

The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.—Psalm 18:2 (NIV)

Unexpected and challenging changes—you lose a job or feel betrayed by a friend—can be difficult to cope with. Yet when you reflect on your journey, you recognize that despite your fear and resistance, the difficult times brought wisdom and compassion. Your faith grew, and so did your spirit.

Lord, comfort me and guide me when life takes an unpleasant turn. Help me accept what has happened and trust that You are in control.

Seek His Approval

For they loved human praise more than praise from God.—John 12:43 (NIV)

Are you using your gifts to serve others? It’s easy to fall into the trap of wanting praise from others—and not focusing on the One who truly matters. Search your heart and align your thoughts and actions with His will and your gifts.

Dear Lord, I want to live my life in a way that serves others and makes You proud.

The Strength in Vulnerability

We have spoken freely to you, Corinthians, and opened wide our hearts to you.—2 Corinthians 6:11 (NIV)

Open your heart wide and share your secrets with God. Search the dark places of your heart and tell Him something you have never told anyone. Be clear and honest. Lay your burdens at His feet and feel His protective presence allowing you to be your true self.

Dear Lord, thank You for being with me and helping me see the strength in my vulnerability.

Get Ready for Your New Thing

“Remember not the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.”—Isaiah 43:18–19 (ESV)

Are you looking for a spark to bring a little magic into your life? It is easy to fall into a routine and forget that trying new things—whether traveling to a new city or country, exploring a nearby town or trying a new recipe—can refresh and inspire you. Today, ask God to help you experience something new!

Lord, You have created so many amazing things. Wow me today with something I’ve never experienced.

The Message in Every Moment

You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you!—Isaiah 26:3 (NLT)

Sometimes it can feel as if you are rushing through life. When you hurry, you miss out on the joy of the moment, and everything can feel out of sync. God never intended for you to strain and stress through life. You are here to nurture your faith, and that means taking on the tasks you need to do in time with the rhythm of your soul.

Almighty Father, help me slow down and fully experience the message and meaning in every moment.

Discerning the Truth

Watch out that no one deceives you.—Mark 13:5 (NIV)

Sometimes people twist the truth or bend Scripture to mean something that doesn’t feel quite right in your heart. When this happens, quiet your thoughts and feel Jesus’ presence. Draw close to Him and rely on His wisdom and guidance to lead you to the true meaning. Center your mind and your heart on Him.

Heavenly Father, I turn to You to help strengthen my discernment. Guide me on the right path.

Always the Same

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.—Hebrews 13:8 (NIV)

When your future is unknown and you are struggling with uncertainty, reflect on the truth that God is the same today and forever. Though the world can change daily, His strength and power are an unchangeable and robust force—always loving and gracious in our uncertain world.

Lord, thank You for being the One I can count on, no matter what is happening around me.

Uniquely Blessed

Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.—Matthe w 5:48 (NIV)

You are perfect, exactly as you are right now. You don’t need to accomplish anything or prove your worth. You are not being judged and graded by God. You have been blessed with unique gifts and talents and are now learning life lessons.

Lord, when I am hard on myself—judging myself against an ideal version—guide me back to this beautiful truth. I am right where I am supposed to be.

Glorious God, Your faithfulness is beyond what I can imagine.

Grow into Your Dreams

Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.—Psalm 37:4 (ESV)

C. S. Lewis said, “You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.” It is never too late to be who you want to be. Open your heart to new hopes and dreams. Say goodbye to goals that have become outdated. Let go of beliefs that you have outgrown. Look to the future, knowing that everything is possible with God’s help.

Heavenly Father, remind me that I am never too old to pursue my dreams.
