August 11th – Romans 12:2

Romans 12:2

The Bible warns us that as the days grow darker, the world will be like in the days of Noah. A time when wickedness was increasing and people had turned their hearts away from God. When we look around at the world today, it’s easy to see we are living in such a time.

That’s why staying close to God and grounded in His Word is more important than ever. Every day, we’re surrounded by voices telling us what to believe, how to live, and what’s right and wrong. Not every voice speaks truth. And if we aren’t filling our minds with God’s truth, we can easily begin believing the world’s lies without even realizing it.

But when we spend time in Scripture, pray, and seek the Lord, He transforms the way we think. His truth helps us recognize lies, know what’s pleasing to Him, and to stand firm on His promises. We don’t have to be afraid of the darkness. We simply need to keep our eyes on the Light.

So as the world grows increasingly wicked and distant from God, let us draw even closer to Him. Fill your heart with His Word. Renew your mind with His truth. Stand firm in your faith. And remember that we were never called to look like the world. We’re called to look like Jesus.

July 15th – Matthew 12:30

Matthew 12:30

Jesus reminds us that there is no middle ground when it comes to following Him. We can’t divide our hearts between God and the world. He calls us to love Him completely with our thoughts, our words, our choices, and our lives.

Loving God completely doesn’t mean we’ll never stumble or make mistakes. It means He becomes the greatest desire of our hearts. We begin to care more about pleasing Him than pleasing people. We choose His truth over the world’s opinions, His ways over our own, and His will over our comfort.

When we truly love God, it changes how we live. It affects how we speak to others, how we forgive, how we spend our time, and how we respond when life becomes difficult. Our faith is no longer something we practice only on Sundays, it becomes the foundation of everything we do.

None of us loves God perfectly, but every day we have another opportunity to grow closer to Him. As we spend time in His Word, talk with Him in prayer, and walk in obedience, our love for Him deepens. May our lives reflect hearts that are fully devoted to the One who first loved us.

January 7th – Matthew 11:28

Matthew 11:28

Did you know self care is an 11 billion dollar industry? Everywhere we go we are in inundated with a miracle pill, potion, meditation, or exercise. But the best care for our mind, souls, and body doesn’t cost a thing. It’s a free gift offered by God to those who rest in the Lord. An invitation in the hustle and bustle of life to take a moment to pause and surrender our burdens at His feet. Because resting in the Lord isn’t just a physical break, but a spiritual renewal. A chance to exchange our weariness for His yoke, which is easy, and His burden, which is light. Resting in the Lord’s embrace allows our souls to breathe, rejuvenating our spirits and preparing our hearts for the days ahead. It’s an acknowledgment that true strength is found in the quiet moments of communion with Him, where His peace sustains us through life’s journey. So in a world that advocates self care, the greatest comfort is found not in the noise of the world but in the quiet rest of the soul. Where the gentle embrace of the Lord becomes the ultimate form of care.

February 13th – Matthew 22:37

Matthew 22:37

When asked what the greatest commandment was, Jesus’ answer was simple. Love. Love for God followed by love for others. Because love is the fulfillment of the law, and the very foundation of the gospel. “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life.” (John 3:16) Out of overflowing hearts of thankfulness, how can we not love God with our entire mind, bodies, and souls! For to Him only goes the glory and it is He who alone is worthy of our worship and devotion!
