The minute I said, “I’m slipping, I’m falling,”
Your love, God, took hold and held me fast.
When I was upset and beside myself,
You calmed me down and cheered me up..
—Psalm 94: 18-19 [The Message]

 

A Time to Think … “Something terrible can happen to you, and yet, the day after this something terrible, the sun still rises, and life goes on…and therefore, so must you.”  ―Martin Short, Comedian

A Time to Act … Instead of taking on a problem by yourself, take a deep breath and remember that God is in control. Give God the problem, and together you both will work it out in God’s strength!

A Time to Pray… O Lord, help me to give up what I should not take on alone. Draw me closer into your love and wisdom that I may depend fully on your strength and daily encouragement, for that is where I kind find joy and calm in the midst of each day. In the precious name of Jesus I ask it, AMEN.
