God has a plan for us. And sometimes, His plans are different from ours. Even the good things that we want to do may interfere with doing the better things that He has in mind for us. We must keep watching and listening for His instruction. And when we encounter obstacles, we must seek Him in prayer for further direction.

God, thank You for giving me a place in Your church, and for using me to share Your good news with others. Help me to understand where You are leading me, so that my plans may align with Your plans. If I should seek a different course, please gently direct me to where You want me to go. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Sometimes our present circumstances make it hard to see the things that had been so clear to us in the past. When we’re faced with uncertainty or difficulty, we can take comfort by remembering the words that God has spoken to us before. The love and kindness that He revealed to us in the past are just as true today because our God is faithful and unchanging.

Lord, sometimes I lose sight of Your love, and I struggle to feel Your kindness. Thank You for loving me with an everlasting love and for remaining with me through seasons of triumph and difficulty. Help me Lord, to take comfort in the truth of Your unchanging love no matter what my day brings. In Jesus’ name, amen.

The Christian life is a life of boldness. As children of God, we can have total confidence in our relationship with Him as our Father. We have no reason to feel as if we need to tremble or fear when we approach God. We have no reason to feel ashamed or afraid. All of that was removed when Christ died on the cross for us and resurrected on the third day. Jesus Christ totally transformed the relationship that we have with God. In the times of the Old Testament, people feared God and they never thought of coming into His presence. Even the High Priests weren't safe enough to enter God's presence, the Holy of Holies, because of their sin.
But when the power of sin over our lives was overcome by the blood of Jesus Christ, the dynamics of our relationship with God changed. We no longer have to be far away from God. We don't have to cower away from him, wallowing in our imperfections. God wants us as close Him as possible so that He can love us, guide us, assure us, and strengthen us. God wants to see us grow. He wants to see us overcome the habits and strongholds that held us down for years.
God wanted us free and we were set free through His son. The freedom we received was free of charge. God granted us this freedom out of his deep love for us and nothing else. There weren't any ulterior motives. God didn't wait spring any unpleasant surprises on us - and that is how it will remain.
God takes delight in the fact that we are able to approach him boldly. He doesn't want us to be afraid of him. This may confuse a few people who many not know what the "fear of God means". To fear God does not mean to be afraid of Him. It means to hold him in high regard; to revere him.

The faith that we have in God should compel us to come to him boldly, the way a child would run to his or her father - full of love and totally devoid of fear. God desires that we be close to Him. He doesn't want us to treat him like a faraway entity. That's not what He is.
He is an ever-present Father who cares for every aspect of your life. Amen
