Devotional Reflection

PeaceGratitudeHope

As someone who used to be very clumsy, this promise is almost too good to be true: nothing can make me fall down. But when it comes to living my life, nothing can make me fall if I know God's will, love it, and do it. Knowing that the Father loves me and doesn't want me to fall gives me a lot of peace.

Prayer

God, thank you for today. I appreciate everything that is to come. I'm grateful that I don't have to face today or tomorrow with questions about my core principles or without knowing what you want for me in life. Instill a love for your law and your word in me so that nothing will cause me to err. So that I can more accurately represent your character, empower me by your Spirit and lead me by your truth. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.
