Christian Devotionals and Scripture Applied to Everyday Life

Over the years most of us collect a wide variety of items we would consider treasures. But often times in the course of life these special trophies find their way into a storeroom where they are forgotten or even ruined over time. When they are rediscovered in a state of disrepair it causes one to question the true value of the item. That is why the best type of investment is in heavenly treasures. 

Developing a plan and seeing your idea through creates deep satisfaction. But how about when you set the schedule and complete all the preparation only to have mitigating circumstances change the outcome? In this case, God’s children must remember and trust that although we make our plans, the Lord directs our steps.

Life isn't meant to be all about receiving good service. If we follow in the footsteps of Jesus then we are the ones born to serve.

One day we will all walk through the valley of the shadow of death but no matter the circumstances remember God's promise - you are never alone!

Ending the day with prayer and reflection helps to evaluate emotions and reprioritize life. Consider the Psalmist's words and start a new tradition.

In this life we will experience suffering. But we have a perfect example of how to respond. When we are following in Jesus' steps we can rejoice.
