#28: 1 Corinthians 16:13 Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. Being on your guard does not mean you try to control everything that is happening.

This will inspire you to keep waking up each day. #30: Psalm 34:8 Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good; Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him. Looking for a safe place?

#33: Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.

He is the one who guided your husband back home to help you unexpectedly. #34: Proverbs 13:12 Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life. Have you hoped and longed for something for what seems like an eternity? Maybe you have been waiting 15 years for a child you know God promised you.

Your career can become more fulfilling. God can mend your broken heart and help you live again. #40: Isaiah 44:8 Fear not, nor be afraid; have I not told you from of old and declared it?

He knows fear can disable us, but God is solid and strong just like a rock. #41: Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. Sometimes we think if one thing goes wrong in our perfect plans then we are destined for failure. This is not true because God already has His perfect plan all worked out for us and it often includes bumps in the road to draw us closer to Him. Feel inspired to keep going when you seem to have hit a wall.
#42: 2 Corinthians 4:16-18 So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal. Breath in the promises that God is giving to you here! Our physical bodies eventually break down, but each day God is renewing who we are inside. It s comforting to know that God is restoring us and we won t have to face our Earthly challenges in Heaven. #43: James 1:2-4 Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness.

The joy comes in knowing that God is right there with you and the challenges you face are transforming you to become more like Christ. #44: Ezekiel 36:26 And I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit I will put within you. And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. God can soften even the hardest of hearts.

When Saul transformed into Paul he became Jesus biggest fan. #45: Romans 1:17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, The righteous shall live by faith. When you seek a relationship with Christ you become righteous and you begin living by faith. This means you give your burdens to God and trust Him each day. #46: John 14:27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. Things in the world can be comforting, but they do not give us true peace that lasts. When Jesus went to Heaven he left us His peace.
#47: John 15:13 Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends. Has someone sacrificed for your well-being? Parents often do this for their children. This sacrificial love means you go out of your way to support and build up the people you love. Christ loved us so much that He sacrificed His life for us. Look for ways to sacrifice your time to show love to others. The gift you will receive is wholeness and the ability to spread God s love to others. #48: 1 Peter 5:7 Casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you. Christ cares for you!

You won t be misunderstood or falsely accused. Becoming Filled with Inspiration I pray these verses inspire you to keep growing in your faith and walk with Christ.
