Word of the Day: What to do when all seems lost
When everything goes wrong and you see no way out of your problems, what do you do? Believe in God! God has the power to save you. He will never abandon you!
In him and through faith in him we may approach God with freedom and confidence.
Ephesians 3:12
Confidence in Christ will give you strength and the ability to face life's difficulties with courage and wisdom. God wants you to trust in Him wholeheartedly, surrendering to Him everything that frightens and causes you anxiety. Free from fear and worries, you will be able to cling to what can truly provide you with a way out: Jesus Christ!
He is our firm hope, like an anchor for the soul. Able to sustain us even when the boat of life is adrift in a storm. Hold on to Jesus, He is the eternal rock that never falters!
Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful.
Hebrews 10:23
Remember: There is NO door that God cannot open. Trust in Him, pray for help, and He will assist you.
Put your trust in the Lord and make Him your security. He takes care of you!

Word of the Day: This is the greatest gift of all...
What is the most important gift in the Bible? Is it prophecy, knowledge, wisdom, or faith? No! The greatest gift of all is love. The Bible says that God is love and that without love, we are nothing. Love transforms us and makes us more like Jesus. The Christian life should be a life of love.
If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.
1 Corinthians 13:2
Any other gift you have been given should be used with love. If you use any other gift without caring for others, then you should go before God and ask Him for guidance, and to fill you with His Holy Spirit and His love.
God’s Love and Ours
7 Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. 8 Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. 9 This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.
1 John 4:7-9
Do you want to be effective in your service to God? Do you want to transform this world for the glory of God? Do you want your life to reflect that God is the center and the one who drives you? Fill your heart with the most important gift: fill your heart with the love of God.

Word of the Day: God turns the storm into a gentle breeze
Have you ever found yourself on a boat in the middle of a storm? It's a terrible feeling of helplessness. You don't know what to do and you can't find a place to escape. Wherever you go, the boat moves and it's hard to stand. All that's left is to wait for the calm to come.
28 Then they cried out to the Lord in their trouble,
and he brought them out of their distress.
29 He stilled the storm to a whisper;
the waves of the sea were hushed.
Psalm 107:28-29
Throughout our lives, we go through many storms. Some are small, like missing someone you love who has moved to another city. Others are big storms that trigger fear and a great sense of helplessness. Cry out to the Lord in these moments! He hasn't forgotten about you. Trust, and persevere in Him, and you will see how He comes to your aid, turning the storm into a gentle breeze.
We should remember that Jesus encountered a very real storm in The New Testament:
38 Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on a cushion. The disciples woke him and said to him, “Teacher, don’t you care if we drown?”
39 He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, “Quiet! Be still!” Then the wind died down and it was completely calm.
40 He said to his disciples, “Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?”
Mark 4:38-40
This story of Jesus calming the storm is a reminder that when we face trials and challenges we should place our trust in Jesus and persevere in our faith. When we do this we will find sufficient peace and strength to overcome even the tallest obstacles. Just as Jesus calmed the storm for his disciples, he will come to our aid, bringing calmness and reassurance to our lives when we trust in him with all our hearts.
