Teach me to hear Your voice
Thought For Today
Dear God, teach me to hear Your voice, that I may minister healing and hope to Your people. Let me abide in the faith, hope, and love that You have poured into my life. Let me, in turn, pour out what You have given to me to encourage someone else in their walk and their future.
“For surely I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord, plans for your welfare and not for harm, to give you a future with hope” (Jeremiah 29:11 NRSV).

Free Me
Thought For Today
Dear Father God, free me from emotional garbage that would turn into verbal pollution. Your Word is so clear about speaking out of the abundance of my heart. Please help keep me clean and pure of heart, so that when I do speak, it is of a good report.
“A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth that which is evil; for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks” (Luke 6:45).

Give the gift of joy
Thought For Today
Dear Jesus, help me to give the gift of joy everyday, in every area of my life, especially during the times I least feel like rejoicing. Never let me forget where I was and where I am now, and how you have blessed me in every area of my life. Father, I speak in faith for the areas that I still trust You to move on my behalf.
“For you shall go out with joy…” (Isaiah 55:12).

Let me see with Your eyes
Thought For Today
Dear Lord, when I feel like I’m outside looking in, let me see with Your eyes! Change my perception of rejection from man into an opportunity to see Your hand ever shaping my character, and preparing me for the trials and triumphs that lie ahead. Free me from any wounds that have been inflicted by fellow Christians, so I will always have a good report for those who seek to know You more.
“The heart knows its own bitterness; And a stranger does not share its joy” (Proverbs 14:10).
