“Surely the righteous will never be shaken; they will be remembered forever. They will have no fear of bad news; their hearts are steadfast, trusting in the LORD. Their hearts are secure, they will have no fear; in the end they will look in triumph on their foes” (Psalm 112:6-8, NIV). I was trying to…Read more

Day 61: You Are Satisfied
This week, I was studying the name “El Shaddai” which translates to the Almighty, all-sufficient God. It was a great reminder that God’s grace is sufficient for us (2 Corinthians 12:9). God is everything we need! Although it is true there are times we need things physically (like food and water), God fills us spiritually…Read more
Day 49: You Are No Longer Dead
“Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace. The mind…Read more
Day 48: You Are Amidst Temporary
“They will perish, but you remain; they will all wear out like a garment. Like clothing you will change them and they will be discarded. But you remain the same, and your years will never end” (Psalm 102:26-27, NIV). These verses emphasize the psalmists rejoicing in the knowledge that the Lord our God is eternal….Read more
Day 47: You Are Given Perspective
I accidentally failed to mention I am doing a mini series again with the verses above… but yep, that’s what we’re doing. However, I have already done “raised up” and “alive” so this will be fun. Perspective. I have a love-hate relationship with the idea of perspective because not only does healthy, right thinking show…Read more
Day 46: You Are Hidden
“Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God” (Colossians 3:1-3).

Day 44: You Are Children
“Ms. Lia!! I drew something for you!” Over the summer, I am a part-time nanny, and I got my first drawing today. I have no idea what it is, even after I asked the four-year-old what it was. But I still love it; it’s hanging up my room now. Children have a fascination with the…Read more
Day 43: You Are Burdened
Galatians 6:2 tells us to “Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ” (NIV). For a long time, I was under the assumption that meant I was always supposed to hear a person’s story the whole way through, being a good team player and completing the entire project…Read more
Day 42: You Are Growing
“Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the teaching about righteousness. But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil” (Hebrew 5:13-14, NIV). In order for a young child to grow up, they need to move away from things…Read more
