Outside the Camp
Therefore Jesus also, that He might sanctify the people through His own blood, suffered outside the gate. Hence, let us go out to Him outside the camp, bearing His reproach.

Weary and Burdened
Oh Father, I am heartbroken. It all seems impossible. Though, nothing is impossible with You (Luke 1:37; Matthew 19:26). “Come to Me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest (Matthew 11:28).” I am so burdened. I come to You with this burden — again. I am so weary. I come to…
When I Don’t Want to Give Thanks

We are not alone. Our God is a powerful God. He is at work for us always, guarding us and tending us, His sheep. We understand that this world is a tough place and we need God. We need Jesus, who has gone before us and secured victory. It’s easy to know and see that…
Sustained
It’s not up to me. I lay down and slept; I awoke, for the Lord sustains me (Psalm 3:5). The Lord sustains me. Even in a simple thing like waking up, the Lord sustains me. Life keeps picking up speed. Worries of this world abound. “Will I have time for everything?” And, “I don’t have…
