Spending time with God and listening to and reading His Words is often all we need in this chaotic world.
Where would I be without Him, this One who’s all-powerful and all-wise? Where would I be if left on my own to figure out life and the path I should take?
Imagine being a friend of God…the Creator of all that exists…the One who calls the stars by name…the One who knows how many hairs are on our heads.
I find encouragement in knowing that whether or not God answers my prayers isn’t based on how eloquent my words are, or how good I am.
I find comfort in knowing that once God has forgiven me, He doesn’t recall the thoughtless and negative things I’ve done.
Rather than waste energy entertaining doubt and fear, let’s choose to trust in this far more awesome God to protect and provide for us.
Three days? So much for a leisurely trip and quality time. I managed to remain positive in public, but I poured out my heart to the Lord in private.
I read Isaiah 63:14 and this thought popped into mind: Does my life accurately reflect God’s magnificent reputation? Do I honor His reputation?
My thoughts are tempted to flit from here to there and everywhere – wondering why marketing efforts didn’t produce more, wondering what more I could have done.
God’s Word is filled with amazing promises He’s made to those who follow Him. Psalm 57 contains three of them. And they are true for you today

This mighty One, the Creator who made the heavens and the earth, is He who holds us in His hands. He loves us, calls us by name, and has plans for our lives.
Jesus wants relationship with His followers. He wants us to slow down, step out of the “busy boat,” and spend time in His presence.

I’m guilty, too. I read about God’s strength and love and faithfulness in His Word, but worry still creeps into my thoughts.
