Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for the description of how You provide for the birds. Thank You for telling us that we are more valuable than the birds. Please remind us of the many ways You have provided. We forget too easily.
I pray this in Jesus’ name.
God is so good.
God has given us so many wonderful reminders in His Word. This verse tells us of a priority. We must seek God’s kingdom first. The context of this passage is how God’s provides. We are not to worry about our daily needs. God provides even for the birds. We know He will provide for us.
So let’s seek God’s way in all that we do and watch for His provision.
Dear Heavenly Father, please help us to seek Your kingdom and pursue Your righteousness. Please guide our seeking. Help us to remember we can trust You through the process.
I pray this in Jesus’ name.
God is so good.
We live in a world who wants worth to be whatever we want it to be. The truth is our value is because we are made in the image of God. There is no greater worth that people can know.
I typically write this blog for people who have a personal relationship with God. I wonder if anyone reads who doesn’t know what it is like to know who God really is. There are many ways to learn about God – there is only one to know Him personally. If you want to learn more start reading the book of Mark in the Bible. See who Jesus is. He can be trusted – the Bible can be trusted. You will learn the truth. If something is confusing ask God to help and find a church that can teach you the Bible. I can assure you that the greatest joy you can find is knowing who God really is.
Dear Heavenly Father, I’m not sure who will read this post or what they will do with this. I pray that someone will choose to find out Who You are. Please help me to share the truth of the gospel with others including reminding those who know You to continue to trust in You each day.
I pray this in Jesus’ name.

Life is filled with difficulties and challenges. We can get lost in sorrow and worry. However, God has provided a “living hope” for those who have trusted in Jesus Christ for salvation. Some of that hope is our eternal future. 1 Peter 1:4 talks about the beauty of our eternal reward. Verse 5 comes back to telling us about the here and now. It says, “By God’s power are being guarded through faith.” Ephesians 6 tells us to pick up the shield of faith. This verse talks about God’s power guarding us through faith.
No matter what we are facing, God is working. His power is protecting us for a wonderful future that will last for all eternity. Praise the Lord!
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for the living hope for a wonderful eternal future. Please help us to cling to the protection You have provided as we walk the challenges of life.
I pray this in Jesus’ name.
God is so good.
