“Lord, my desires at times can be so strong. It’s easy for me to feel consumed with longing, convinced I must have what I want when I want it. I’m obsessed with a different reality I can see myself in the middle of, one I feel I desperately need and sincerely want. But, God, I see you as higher than all of this. Today, I choose to put you above my own desires. I give my longings to you. I’m asking you to shape and form my longings to reflect yours. And I trust in the goodness you want to bring me, in your way, that is better than anything I could dream up. You are the God of the universe, God of my heart, and God of my future. You are God, and I am not. And that is a very, very good thing. Amen.”

“twisting something good (in this case, curiosity) into something that leads to sin is how the Evil One works. He inverts and corrupts the goodness of God’s creation.

“God, I don’t know what tomorrow will bring, but you do. Your presence next to me builds confidence within me. In the midst of my hurt, let me see a bigger picture of your holiness and your gracious work in my life. I know you are with me, God, so I will rest in the peace you give me. Keep steering your heart in that direction. And keep holding on to this: humility is God’s gift to you in every situation. It helps you face your fears. It connects you to the power and peace of God. And it turns your unexplainable suffering into a means of transformation, deepening and strengthening you into maturity, as you trust and depend on him more and more.”

“Imagine a future you walking into every room—at work, with family, in social settings—with a humble confidence formed by the Holy Spirit. How powerful and stabilizing would it feel to be certain that, regardless of any situation you walk into (positive or negative), you are connected to him, his love, and his resources? Whatever would happen, you’d know in your bones: God’s got me. I’m going to be okay. He will get me through it.”
