Choose to Forgive

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.—1 John 1:9 (NIV)

When someone has wronged you, you have a choice. Brood over your anger and hurt feelings, or dig deep into your heart and forgive the offense. Rather than staying fixed in your rage—grow spiritually and begin the healing process. Forgive.

Heavenly Father, help me recognize that holding on to anger limits my future and growth, and keeps me stuck in negative thinking.

The Quiet Life

Make it your goal to live a quiet life, minding your own business and working with your hands, just as we instructed you before.—1 Thessalonians 4:11 (NLT)

True Friends

When Job’s three friends, Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite, heard about all the troubles that had come upon him, they set out from their homes and met together by agreement to go and sympathize with him and comfort him.—Job 2:11 (NIV)

Job’s three friends took time away from their homes to go and comfort him. When someone you love is going through a difficult time, reach out to them, and show up for them. Let them know that you are there for them and that you care.

Heavenly Father, when I am considering sympathizing from afar, lead me to reach out and be present.

Tune in to God’s Gifts

Ears that hear and eyes that see—the Lord has made them both.—Proverbs 20:12 (NIV)

God sends small miracles to brighten every day. Do you notice them? The next time you experience a little blessing—a parking spot that opens up, a beautiful dragonfly that lands on your window, or a meaningful song that pops up on the radio just as you tune the dial—thank Him for shining His light on your life.

Dear Lord, Your fingerprints are all around me. Give me ears that hear and eyes that see Your many wondrous blessings.

Shake the Dust Off

If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, leave that home or town and shake the dust off your feet.—Matthew 10:14 (NIV)

When Jesus sent the disciples to spread the Gospel, He knew that they would not always be welcome. His advice when this happened was to move on and keep going. Is there something in your life that you are clinging to that may just be a waste of time? Reflect on what is blocking you from moving forward. Shake the dust off your feet.

Lord, help me discern what I should let go of. Guide me forward on my faith journey.

Shine His Light on Dark Thoughts

At midnight I will rise to give thanks unto thee because of thy righteous judgments.—Psalm 119:62 (KJV)

Often things that keep us up at night lose their significance and power in the light of day. The lonely hours of the night can break down our defenses and make us feel hopeless. God and strong faith are the cure for dark thoughts. His Word is a beacon of hope.

Heavenly Father, I know You are with me, guiding me to embrace life’s journey, even through the loneliness of dark nights.

Fear Not

For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.—2 Timothy 1:7 (NKJV)

Fear can be crippling, stopping you from doing the very things that God is calling you to do. His love can help you overcome all obstacles. Pray for the confidence to follow your heart. Read over some of the many Scriptures in the Bible that begin with “fear not,” and trust that He is ready to help you accomplish your greatest achievements.

Lord, I know You are with me every step of the way. Give me the courage to take that leap of faith. Because of You, I know that I am not alone in the fight against fear.

The Importance of Being There

I have much to write to you, but I do not want to use paper and ink. Instead, I hope to visit you and talk with you face to face, so that our joy may be complete.—2 John 1:12 (NIV)

In the above verse, John touches on the complete joy of sharing one another’s company face to face. As technology has evolved, communication has shifted, and we often spend time texting or messaging on social media. Today, plan on experiencing the joy of looking into a loved one’s eyes as you share your time.

Dear Lord, help me show the important people in my life how much I love them.

You Will Reap the Songs of Joy

Those who sow with tears will reap with songs of joy.—Psalm 126:5 (NIV)

Dear Lord, when my heart is heavy with grief, fill me with Your peace and reassure me of the bright future You have planned for me.

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.—2 Corinthians 1:3–4 (NIV)

Someone said, “The courage it takes to share your story might be the very thing someone else needs to open their heart to hope.” Reflect on your life, and ask Jesus to help you find ways to inspire others and give them hope by sharing a personal experience.

Dear Lord, guide me to bless others with my story.

The one who gets wisdom loves life; the one who cherishes understanding will soon prosper.—Proverbs 19:8 (NIV)
