Verse of the Day


​"Worry weighs a person down; an encouraging word cheers a person up." 
​Proverbs 12:25
​

Reflection


​There are many Bible verses that advice against worry.
"Who can add an hour to their life by worrying?"
Luke 12:25
or
​"Be anxious about nothing, but instead pray about everything." 
Philippians 4:6
​
What wise words. What truth. 
No matter how much we worry, that doesn't change a thing. 
Now prayer on the other hand; prayer is powerful!
​
We all know that telling someone not to worry is much easier said than done. 
So instead of simple instructing someone to "let go and let God," think of how you might encourage them. 

​Oftentimes when we are in situations of uncertainty we need a caring friend to remind us of God's word. 
​

Be that friend

CHallenge
​

Remind someone that as long as God is in control we need not worry, then do more than that, offer to pray with them. 
Send a text, write a note, or speak an encouraging word directly into someone's life this week. 
Point them to God.  
Be his hands and feet. 
Challenge accepted?

Let's Pray


Dear Heavenly Father, 

We know that in this world we will have troubles. You've told us so. But you don't leave us there. You reassure us that we don't have to fear, because you have overcome the world. 
Let us rest in that comfort knowing that ultimately you are in control. 
When we have a strong faith it is imperative that we share it with others. 
Help us to be vocal and bold in sharing your word. 
May those that hear be moved to follow you. 
Give us the words to say that will encourage others and lead them to an abundant life found only in you 

In Jesus name we pray. 
​Amen
