Those who look to him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame.
— Psalm 34:5

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

We are like the moon; the glory we show is the reflection of the greater life in our lives that does not originate in us but is a blessing to others through us. Look to God for your hope, your strength, your values, your foundation, your security, and your light.

My Prayer...

Father, I look for you and to you. Be near me as I face challenges and temptations. Don't let the evil one bring me shame because of my sin and weakness. Triumph over evil in my life for your glory. In Jesus' name. Amen.

How big a check do you want God to sign for you? We often turn prayer into a time to demand God give us things so we can cash our check from him rather than as a time to submit to his will and grace for us.
