For God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases him. Philippians 2: 13 NLT

When the timing is right, God opens our eyes to discover His strength. He helps us develop a passion for purpose, but sometimes we don’t allow Him to handle our lives. We forget who guides our days and need to be reminded who has a plan. 

God is working in us. He gives us desire to do what is good. He readies us to serve Him with a faithful heart and follow His lead. When doubt sets the stage for fear to dwell, He knows how to destroy it! He makes us stronger than before as we trust in Him. He restores us.   

The Bible says, “And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up. Galatians 6:9 NIV God knows how to fill us FULL of everything we need to welcome the power of His faithfulness. He knows how to ready us to rise. He removes our fear and reminds us we don’t have to handle life on our own. 

There will never be a day without the love of our Father. If we question what’s holding us back from finding abundant joy, He will make it clear. God will open our eyes to see what’s ahead and remind us who is handling our days. He will prepare us to do amazing things and He will grow us! When we have learned to totally TRUST, we will see how it feels to embrace a grateful heart. God will bless us when we find the courage to let him have control.   

I can do all this through Him who gives me strength. Philippians 4: 13 NIV 

Dear God, Thank you for your everlasting love. Forgive us when we forget who is working for the good. Ready us to serve You with all of our hearts and prepare us to find strength in the power of Your plan. We will trust You all the days of our lives and never forget how lucky we are to be loved by YOU. Thank you, Lord. Thank you for reminding us exactly why we need You. Amen
