26 My health may fail, and my spirit may grow weak,
    but God remains the strength of my heart; he is mine forever.

DESTINATION

AUG. 2 – 2 COR. 12:9

9 Each time he said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me.

POWER

Power comes from God,

To those surrendered and under control.

We know our weakness.

We know that only in Jesus Christ can we succeed.

This is God’s Day, and I am available for His use.

People count, I serve them.

Jesus loves me, therefore I can love people.

HELP

His help is consistent and constant.

I have never been without His help.

He helps me in everything I face,

Moment by moment, day by day. 

Thank You, Lord.  Thank You, Lord.

BETTER

I am better able to forgive and forget.

This equips me to grow into Christ-likeness.

Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.

GROW

We grow in love as we know Him better.

His love for us equips us to grow.

We get to know Him better as we act as His representative.

Love one another.

Love Jesus.

Grow in love.

Be His hands and feet.

    My covenant of blessing will never be broken,”
    says the Lord, who has mercy on you.

MERCY

Thank you, Lord, for your gracious mercy.

Each morning when I awake and jump out of bed,

I am blessed, we are blessed by your gracious mercy. 

Thank you, Lord.

Thank you Lord. 

JULY 25 – 1 PETER 5:6-7

7/25           ! Peter 5:6-7

6 So humble yourselves under the mighty power of God, and at the right time he will lift you up in honor. 7 Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.

HUMBLE

God calls us to humble ourselves. 

Don’t go asking God to make you humble.

Understand who God is and who you are,

And it will make you humble. 

Ego kills Christ like growth.

Therefore, humble yourself under the mighty hand of God.
