Today’s verse is quoted often. It starts, “Do not be anxious about anything” or “don’t worry about anything.” The Passion Translation says it this way: “Don’t be pulled in different directions or worried about a thing. Be saturated in prayer throughout each day, offering your faith-filled requests before God with overflowing gratitude. Tell Him every … Continue reading Different Directions

Continually Woven For Good
Today’s verse is one I remind myself of daily. Romans 8:28 says, “So we are convinced that every detail of our lives is continually woven together for good, for we are His lovers who have been called to fulfill His designed purpose” (TPT). I need to remind myself of this daily because each day we … Continue reading Continually Woven For Good
Seeds of Joy
Yesterday, we looked at how God “sows seeds of light within His lovers.” We looked at what it means to be a lover of God and the promise of revelation and guidance from God.

In Jeremiah 17:9, we read, “The human heart is the most deceitful of all things, and desperately wicked. Who really knows how … Continue reading No One

The actual word used for “distinction” is “peduth,” which means division, ransom, or redemption. Today, there should be a clear distinction … Continue reading Clear Distinction
