Insights of Hope
Safe From Harm
God’s protection is not only found in the moments where disaster is avoided. It is present in the quiet, steady shade of coverage He provides us every single day. We should realize how often the Lord covers us long before we ever feel the heat of life’s pressures. Today's devotion is a reminder that His shelter is not just for a moment. It is constant.
The Plan
This Thanksgiving, gratitude is not just about the blessings we can see. It is about trusting the ones still unfolding. God’s plan can confuse us in the moment, but looking back shows how He’s been guiding every step. What if the delays, surprises, and even losses of this year were part of His way of shaping your future? Today's devotion asks us to be thankful not only for what God has done, but for what He’s doing next.
More Than A Blessing
Most of us come to God hoping He will fix something in our lives, from bills and health issues to strained relationships. But what if Jesus is inviting us to something far deeper than a quick solution? Today's devotion explores the difference between asking Jesus to improve your situation and asking Him to transform your heart. If you are longing for more than temporary relief and want a faith that reshapes your purpose, your priorities, and the way you love others, this reflection is for you.
First
We all have a level of awareness of who we are, but we often choose a layer that does not reveal our authentic self. Perhaps our authentic selves need a bit of work. Today's devotion invites you to let go of worldly definitions we may identify with and embrace the eternal truth of who you are in Christ. Be reminded that your worth is found not in what you do, but in who you belong to first and foremost.
Feeling Like Jesus
We all have hard conversations that require us to deal with sometimes delicate subjects. How can I tell truth while still protecting one's heart and dignity? When Jesus stooped to write in the dust, He held grace and truth together protecting a sinners' dignity while pointing her toward a new way. Today's devotion invites us to practice that same Christ-shaped empathy in every hard conversation ...
Transformed to Christ-like
No one likes to 'conform.' However, that tends to be because we do not want to be a certain way. However, if our hearts our transformed, what once sounded like conformation will start to feel like willful joy. Today's devotion will help you see God's good, pleasing, and perfect will, and how there is joy found in it.
An Open Invitation
If you have ever wondered, “Have I gone too far?” Jesus answers with a running Father and an open door …
Peace In Obedience
How often have you said, "I don't want that!" As a follower of Christ, I could lose count how often I have looked to God to say those very words. The thing is I do not ever regret what 'that' was looking back. It is hard to look to God and admit our wants are not His. The key is to practice our wants are not above His. Today's devotion is a blueprint to why and how to practice just that …
Properly Clothed
How did we lose compassion for each other? Maybe it is lack of time. Perhaps it is political leanings. It could even be something we have become totally desensitized to. No matter how it happened, today's devotion is a chance to pause and gain that part of your walk of faith back. God's love can empower us to see, pause, and be truly present for those around us. The world needs it more now than ever ...
Long And Winding Road
Are you weary from the long, winding road of daily struggles? Discover how faith, endurance, and the wisdom of Scripture can help you persevere—even when the finish line seems out of sight. Today’s devotion reflects on lessons from Matthew, Ecclesiastes, and personal experience to encourage you to stay the course and trust in God’s strength. Let’s finish the race together!
Hungry
We all know the feeling of working up an appetite. I deliberately starved this weekend to ensure I would have room for a dinner at my favorite restaurant in Chicago. But no one wants to eat when they are full. What if you don't know? When it comes to God, many of us did not start out hungering for Him. So, how do we create hunger for a world that sometimes doesn't know it is starving for the message of Christ? Let us begin ...
Not Feeling It
When there are so many things coming at you, it is easy for you to not want to do things. Maybe the job has been mentally taxing or moving into a new place has you physically exhausted. Or perhaps some tragic event has impacted you such that you really do not want to interact with others. What if any of those impact your relationship with God such that you do not even want to talk with Him? Today's devotion might answer that question for you ...
In His Hands
I have to admit that it is an ongoing challenge to deal with what is in my control versus what is in God's control. Growing up, most of us are taught that we are responsible for our own progress. "You have to put in the work," my dad would tell me. But when is putting in work overstepping the boundaries of God doing His work? I cannot say today's devotion has a clear answer, but hopefully, it will give a framework for us to figure it out ...
Accountability Over Condemnation
How do we react to action of others? Do we move to judgment or grace? Today's devotion is about embracing God's kindness to dismantle barriers and foster genuine connections. We pursue a heart of God that seeks to uplift and support others as Jesus did for us. I pray today's devotion gives you a heightened sense of love, grace and self-reflection as we view ourselves as well as others ...
Never-Ending
How great is God's love for us? It is one that is never questioned and I would dare say never forgotten. However, I would often say that it is taken for granted. We rely on it through the bad times, but when things are good, how reassured are we that it is His love that is with us each step of the way? Today's devotion is dedicated to ensuring we are assured of His never-ending love for us ...
