Known
Blessed be the Lord who has given rest to his people Israel, according to all that he promised. Not one word has failed of all his good promise, which he spoke by Moses his servant. 1 Kings 8:56 How is God known? Through the things that don't make sense in our lives. Through the trust...

Undisturbed
Peace, I leave with you; My peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. John 14:27 Jesus was human. Fully God, yet chose to be human. There are many things we could talk about, but let's concentrate...

Roots
He is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers. Psalm 1:3 How do we deeply believe in God? What does that look like? Picture a tree. You are that tree. Ok, you can be...

Purpose
The Lord will fulfill His purpose for me; Your steadfast love, O Lord, endures forever. Do not forsake the work of Your hands. Psalm 138:8 What if God's purposes are for you, not against you?

Thank you
For You have been my help, and in the shadow of Your wings, I will sing for joy. Psalm 63:7 Are His praises ever on your lips? Is your thankfulness dripping off your tongue? It's so much easier to complain. Grumble. Whine. It's easier because it's more natural. Natural in our human mindset. But what...

Today & Tomorrow
Surely there is a future, and your hope will not be cut off. Proverbs 23:18 Ever heard the phrase "He is already there?" Meaning, Jesus is already there. He's in the past. He's here now.

Stamped
For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to give strong support to those whose heart is blameless toward Him. 2 Chronicles 16:9 I just love the following quote: Be stamped with God's nature, and His blessing will come through you all the time.

Ugly Poster
The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace. Romans 8:6 What does it look like? The big ugly poster you see when you begin to think poorly? When you start dwelling on the nasty? What does it look like? Your big ugly poster. Because...

Stealer
For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds. We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ. 2 Corinthians 10:4-5 What steals your peace? Your joy? What types of things get your goat,...
