Psalms 139:4

God has gone before us and protects us from behind. He has our battles already handled. He has the blindside covered. He isn’t surprised by curveballs. This focused 3-day devotional will leave you encouraged in the truth that God is the provider of the exact portion, the exact measure, for your life.

Often we feel as if we’re not doing enough. Then we feel guilty because we’re supposed to be having quiet times with God too—but when we try to slow down, our hearts and minds are still busy. The story of Mary and Martha offers us guidance as well as grace in this tension. It’s a story of two sisters. It’s a story for each of us.

あなたのことをとても愛し、あなたをご自分の元へと引き寄せておられる天のお父さんについて、もっと深く知りたいと思いますか？あなたのすべきことは、天のお父さんの方に向き直し、その胸の中に飛び込むことです。天のお父さんは今もあなたが帰ってくるのを待っています。さあ、これは素晴らしい旅の始まりです！天のお父さんがどんなお方か、また、あなた自身についての真理、あなたの人生の目的を探り、見つける旅に出かけましょう。

The Bible tells us that "in His presence is fullness of joy" and that "the joy of the Lord is our strength". Joy isn't simply another emotion; it is a fruit of the Spirit and one of the best weapons in your arsenal to fight against discouragement, depression, and defeat. Learn what the Bible has to say about joy, and strengthening yourself to become a defiantly joyful Christian.
