Whatever it is that you do—do it well. Do it with purpose. Do it for Him. And at the end of the day, you can say, “It was good.”

A baby boy. That’s how God chose to save the world. It was God’s plan to send His Son in the flesh, and it’s His plan to affect every one of us through this gift. So trust in His purpose, no matter what your role, because He loves you so.

Be strong and take heart for the Lord is my light and my salvation.

God, you know me. You planned every intricate detail of my body, my soul, and my personality. And I love you for that.

We are messed-up people. Even when we try to do good, our evil hearts are still corrupt. But Jesus knows.

We can quench our thirst with a variety of products. They may come in attractive packaging and satisfy us for a while, but we will be thirsty again. So drink from the source of living water—Jesus. You will never thirst again.

We prepare to pray, yet our minds wander and every distraction is magnified. That’s when we simply bow our hearts and say, “Lord, teach us to pray!”

It’s humbling, really. When you consider the entire universe, the billions of stars and people, the noise and activity that never end . . . and He chose YOU! The Creator of everything made you, died for you, and wants a relationship with you.

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

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