Will you let this promise from God cut through the haze? “Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take.”

Jesus promises to guide you if you’re willing to listen. He will walk the road with you if you ask Him. He laid down His life to bring you back to God, and He rose from the dead to offer you unending life.

Following Jesus looks like—praying before deciding, inviting God to speak to you, and taking the next step that He shows you.

Do you want this friendship?

Pray with me: “Jesus, I’ve made my own plans long enough. Thank You for the cross and for Your love for me. I put my life in Your hands. Teach me to listen to Your voice and walk in step with You. Amen.”

Always remember, there is hope with God.

What are you building your life around?

Jesus told this story long ago, and it’s true for you today: “Anyone who listens to my teaching and follows it is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock. Though the rain comes in torrents…and the wind beats against that house, it will not collapse because it is built on bedrock.”

What is that rock, that firm foundation? It’s Jesus.

Do you want to build your life on Jesus, the only strong foundation?

If so, pray with me: “Jesus, I don’t want to build my life on the sand. Thank You for dying for me and rising from the dead. Be my solid rock. Teach me Your truth, help me to become Your friend, and hold me fast when the storms of life come upon me. In Jesus’ name. Amen.”

Always remember, there is hope with God.

Scripture Reference: Matthew 7:24-25

Every one of us has gone to our own way.

Which way have you gone? Maybe your wandering has led you to a very dark place in your relationships. Maybe you have habits that are destroying you, addictions that are hurting you and the people you love.

Your story isn't over. You are a wanderer. But God loves you. He loves you so much that He laid your life and your wandering on His son, Jesus, everything you’ve done wrong.

Come home today. Come to Him. Stop wandering. Turn your eyes away from these things that are destroying you. Ask God for forgiveness, for healing. He loves you.

If you feel that way, if that’s what life is to you, listen to this wonderful invitation from Jesus: “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.”

Following Jesus looks like handing Him each burden, one by one, and learning His gentle way. Do you want that kind of rest?

You can receive it now. Pray with me, “Jesus, I am exhausted. Thank You for carrying away my sin and my fear. I give it to You, happily, take the weight—my past, my worries, my plans. Teach me Your gentle way, and give my soul real rest.”

Put Your trust in Jesus. He will meet you right where you are.

Always remember, there is hope with God.

Do you want to be great? Famous, wealthy? Do you want your name remembered?

We all want our lives to matter. We want to be seen and known. We want to be respected. We want to be remembered.

The interesting truth about this desire is that Jesus offers greatness to us, but not in the way we think. Not greatness as defined by the systems of the world. He offers a different way because He’s a different God. He says, “Come and follow me.”

In Matthew 20, He says, “Whoever among you wants to become great must be your servant…”

He gave His life for you and for me. How could we not see true greatness as being willing to serve others?

Will you let this truth change you today?

Always remember, there is hope with God.

Life can feel like that.

Jesus had something to say about our choices: “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction…But small is the gate and narrow is the road that leads to life...”

Jesus isn’t trying to scare you; He’s inviting you to choose a new way. A new way of life! The wide road promises freedom but ends in emptiness. The narrow road is following Jesus Himself. He conquered death when He rose again, and now He’s leading us into eternal life.

Choosing His road looks like trusting Him with your steps, even when you can’t see the whole picture.

Would you like this? You can pray: “Jesus, I choose Your way. Forgive me. Help me to know You.”

Always remember, there is hope with God.

Today, God is offering you this chance. The Bible promises, “...anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone and new life has begun!”

He’s offering you forgiveness right now.

What does it look like to begin again with Him? It means turning from the old path that you’ve been on—the behaviors and ways of living that you know deep down are hurting your own heart, and those around you—and trusting Jesus day by day—talking to Him, listening to His voice, letting His Spirit guide you and take over your life.

If your heart is saying “yes,” then pray with me: “Jesus, I need Your mercy. Thank You for dying for my sins. Make me new today, and help me to follow You.”

Always remember, there is hope with God.

Scripture Reference: 2 Corinthians 5:17

I'm not sure if you’re like me, but this commandment feels impossible! To love an unseen God in this way.

Jesus knows this, and I am so grateful that He knows this about me. He knows this is an impossible commandment, which is why He came. He loved us with all of Himself.

What kind of love would have the God of the universe lay down His life for people—people who didn’t even love Him?

He loved us first. He loved you first. Because of this… because of this beautiful act of love, we can love Him, and we can truly love others.
