Today's Word
The result will be a blessing
In this moment, God is thinking about you. Had you ever thought about that? If you love God, it means He is thinking about you and everything you do. And everything that happens, everything God allows in your life, whether good or bad depending on your perspective, has a purpose.
What is that purpose? Everything works for your good. See what the following verse says:
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who[a] have been called according to his purpose.
- Romans 8:28
You may not know why some things happen, but you can be sure of this: the result will be a blessing for you who were called according to God’s purpose. Even the things you do not understand today are under God’s control and will result in blessing, one day you will see.
Keep trusting in God in the midst of adversity. Certainly, you will not regret it!
But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord,
whose confidence is in him.
They will be like a tree planted by the water
that sends out its roots by the stream.
It does not fear when heat comes;
its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought
and never fails to bear fruit.
- Jeremiah 17:7–8
Surely God is my salvation;
I will trust and not be afraid.
The Lord, the Lord himself, is my strength and my defense;
he has become my salvation.”
- Isaiah 12:2

At the right moments, we remember the words of the Lord and know what we should do.
Setting aside time before the Lord, seeking His presence, strengthens our spirit and helps us prepare for the day with optimism and confidence.
But I cry to you for help, Lord;
in the morning my prayer comes before you.
- Psalm 88:13
Read the Bible today and allow God to speak to you. He will give you the guidance you need to make the right decisions and live within His will every day. Talk to God, hand over your worries to Him, and wait on Him. You will feel peace, knowing that He is in control, and you will become calmer and more confident.
In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice;
in the morning I lay my requests before you
and wait expectantly.

There is a purpose
The Lord will vindicate me;
your love, Lord, endures forever—
do not abandon the works of your hands.
- Psalm 138:8
There is a purpose for which you are where you are at this moment in history. You have something to contribute to making this world better. God has given you potential, and you must use it to bless the people around you and so that the name of the Lord may be exalted wherever you are.
Bring joy to those who are sad and a word of encouragement to those who are discouraged. These are very simple ways to bring the love of Christ to the people around you. You are here today, and God wants to use you for His glory, let Him guide you!
If you feel discouraged thinking that you have nothing to contribute, speak to the Father. Ask Him to guide you in His purpose for your life. Open your heart to His love and rest in Him. God will never abandon you, and He will guide you every step of the way. Trust your heavenly Father and do not forget that your life has a purpose.
For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
- Ephesians 2:10
