What truth did God reveal to you today? Deep inside I chase security for my family. There are times I work hard but in my heart I fear whether I can provide. Yes, we are commanded to provide for the family but I have to remember God is Jehovah Jireh. In addition, I have to remind myself that I am fearfully and wonderfully made. I do not need to perform for others for myself and be perfect. It is ok to make mistakes and grow from them.
What mask or lie did God expose? I often catch my saying or imagining “What if..”. What if I did not go to graduate school. What if I have invested etc…Mostly regrets that at times captures my heart and mind. This mindset can lead to chasing the lie if not careful.
What is one thing you will intentionally live differently today? Today I reject all thoughts that I should have done more. I believe that God can work in me despite my failures. I want to partner with God rather than relying on my own effort.
How can your brothers encourage, challenge, or pray for you today? I would appreciate prayers over my heart.
