I Am Second

It’s not always easy to find the words to pray when life feels heavy.

The good news is that God isn’t looking for perfect prayers. He invites us to come to him honestly and trust him with what’s on our hearts.

These simple prayers can help you refocus on his peace and his promises.

Doubts will come. Questions will too. But don’t let them have the final say.

Let God’s Word shape your thoughts, steady your heart and remind you of what’s true.

God doesn’t waste our passions, gifts or experiences.

The things he placed inside you may be the very tools he wants to use to encourage others, point people to Jesus and help share the Gospel.

Don’t hide what God gave you. Use it faithfully.

What’s one passion or gift you feel called to use more intentionally?

Today we pause to remember and honor the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country.

Their sacrifice will never be forgotten.

This Memorial Day, take time to hear powerful stories of faith, courage and redemption from veterans through our White Chair Films.

Mental health struggles do not make you less loved by God.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, anxious, exhausted or discouraged, please don’t isolate yourself. Jesus invites us to come to him honestly and sometimes that also means reaching out to trusted people around us.

Talk to someone at your church. Open up to a friend. Seek professional help if needed. You were never meant to carry everything alone.

“Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.” — 1 Peter 5:7

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, discouraged or just needing hope today, these verses are for you.

God’s promises don’t change with our circumstances.

Take a moment to read through these, reflect on them and share them with someone who may need encouragement right now.

You don’t have to travel lightyears to find him.

In every moment, he’s present and listening.

Prayer doesn’t have to be complicated. Just start the conversation.
