March 22 • Jesus is Always the Same
I wonder how the storms you may be facing today are threatening your faith. I wonder if while you’re focused so much on the physical threat, you’ve missed how the storm is slowly changing your mind about God. Things we used to not even worry about or question are now anxiously keeping us up at…

March 21 • Peace in the Storm
If we want to stay calm in the midst of a storm, we must realize that some storms cannot be avoided. Following Jesus and being obedient to Him does not exempt you from the storms of life. We are all subject to this fallen world, and God has not promised us a perfect life, but…

March 20 • God is Not in a Rush
That rushed feeling you hear whispering in your ear, telling you you’re not enough, you’re not moving fast enough, or you’re not doing enough is a lie. It’s one of the enemy’s ways of pressuring you to overwhelm your life and prevent you from hearing from God. Rush, pressure, and overwhelm do not come from…

March 19 • Peace to Sleep Well
After a super busy day, you would think the only thing my body would want to do is quickly fall asleep. Nope! I’ve realized a busy day usually leads to more difficulties falling asleep. My mind races with everything that happened that day and what might happen tomorrow. What will happen tomorrow? What will happen…

March 18 • Soul Rest
Psalm 116:7 is a Psalm I memorized almost 15 years ago. It is my first go-to scripture to say over and over to myself on a sleepless night. It says: “Return to your rest, my soul, for the LORD has been good to you.” (Psalm 116:7 NIV) I love to say this scripture slowly to…

March 17 • When You’re Faint and Weary
God expects you to get tired. He’s planned for you to get weary because He knows you are human. So, what are we supposed to do when we get tired? Isaiah 40:30-31 tells us: “Even youths shall faint and be weary, and young men shall fall exhausted; but they who wait for the Lord shall…

March 16 • Do Not Be Anxious
The Apostle Paul makes this command really clear for believers: Do not be anxious. This is not a suggestion or a good idea. When it comes to anxiety, Paul’s advice is just don’t do it. Philippians 4:6-7 says: “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your…

March 15 • Pride: The Silent Killer
Focusing only on yourself is a sure way to lose your joy. We were made for community and find joy in living beyond ourselves to meet the needs of others. Instead, we’re tempted to work and strive to accomplish more and more. But Paul tells believers not to “do nothing out of selfish ambition” (Philippians…

March 14 • Speak Right to Shine Bright
The Bible has a lot to say about how we use our words because words are powerful. Hateful speech can shut down, bitter words can destroy, gossip is unloving, and complaining can cause loss of perspective. Philippians 2:14-15 tells us: “Do all things without grumbling or disputing, that you may be blameless and innocent, children…

March 13 • The Power of Forgiveness
Forgiveness is the key that can unlock God’s joy in your life. Ephesians 4:31-32 says: “Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.” (Ephesians 4:31-32 ESV) We have…
