THE MAIN THEME: ACHIEVING PERSONAL GROWTH
TITLE: PERSONAL GROWTH: PREPARE FOR THE UNEXPECTED
The quote for today’s devotional is: Tough times never last, but tough people do."
– Robert H. Schuller
Devotional:
Let’s face it, sometimes with all our preparation and calculations, life happens. Sometimes the impact can be localized as we face family troubles or unexpected disappointments; and at other times, like it was in the year 2020 with the Covid 19 pandemic, it could be global, and such major shifts can halt our plans.
While this does not mean that we live in a perpetual state of fear or expectation of ill, it means that we ought to develop our resilience muscle; we must have within us a doggedness that ensures that we can assess and recover from a setback because we know God is still in control. True personal growth means learning to trust God through unexpected changes.
Here are a few reflective questions:
- Is there a recent setback that I have experienced?
- How did I handle it or how could I have handled it better?
- How can I trust God more in uncertain times?
Let Us Pray:
Dear God, I know you are on the throne and always in control. Help me trust you in every situation in Jesus’ name. Amen.
Please say these words of affirmation after me. Say them, mean them, own them and live them:
- I know God has good thoughts towards me.
- I will trust God and not be afraid
- I grow strong through every challenge.
Do have a beautiful day. I’ll see you tomorrow.
