God formed the earth, created everything in it, and knows every detail of His masterpiece. He is perfect and powerful, yet He wants to know you intimately. He wants you to call on Him, and He will be your protector. Your rescuer. Your refuge.

When our bodies fail to provide our heart’s desires there is no one else to turn to for help but God.

“Be crafted into something new.” (Colossians 3:1-11) It starts with an idea. In the designer’s skilled hands, the raw materials begin to take shape. The process is sometimes messy and time consuming, but it is necessary. The transformation process creates something useful, something beautiful, something new.

Through our own narrow lens of experiences, our viewpoint is often unclear and unreliable. We can feel confused and in the dark. When we realign our perspective to God’s vision, we can see clearly.

You are not alone. When you’re fighting an uphill battle and feel like you just can’t go on, God is with you.

No matter what your circumstances, God has a plan. He knows your purpose, and He will see you through.

God not only created us and knows us, but He is in tune to our every thought and emotion.

Stressed? Disillusioned? Exhausted? When life is too much, lay your crushed spirit before the Lord. He is strong. He will protect and renew you. Run to Him . . . He is waiting for you.

God, you are the only thing that matters. Remind me of your goodness and your love.
