 Have you ever felt like you just can’t find where you fit in? 

Sometimes we do not find our place because we confuse the concept of a place with having a position. We expend a lot of time, energy, and resources preparing for a position we think we want, rather than embracing the place God has already prepared for us or is preparing for us.

Because God made us, He knows how and where we will be most fulfilled, functioning at our maximum capacity. So much of the frustration we experience is because we try to fill a position for which we were never designed.


If we truly believe that God is good and that He does good, then surely we can believe that He has prepared a good place in His body for us. Nothing will satisfy us like the place He has prepared for us.


God made us and knows where we will flourish; all we need to do is step into that place and trust Him with our future.

  P - PAUSE to be still. Meditate on what you’ve just read, allowing it to sink in. R - REFLECT on Scripture. What was God saying to you today through His Word? Speak aloud a verse to remember, and maybe even write it down. A - ASK for God’s help. The challenge is to be with Jesus and become more like Him. How does today’s Word challenge you to do that? Y - YIELD to His will in your life. God lovingly invites you into the beautiful plan He has for you, His church, and the world. Take up His invitation to live differently, understanding His plan is beyond anything we could ask or imagine. Scripture: 2 Samuel 3 2 Samuel 4 2 Samuel 5 John 1:1

“AWAKENING - Coming To Your Senses” Often we miss the alarms sounding in our lives because we’re not sensitive to them. The soft harp alarm won’t do the job—it’s going to take the blaring alarm to wake us up. So instead of responding to the alarm early, we keep hitting snooze. The alarm grows louder and louder until eventually it is so unpleasant we can’t ignore it any longer. So we wake up, rub our eyes, look around to find the prodigal sons pigs surrounding us, and wonder how it came to this. Here’s my question for you: Are there alarms sounding in your life right now? In Scripture there are a number of examples of how God sounds the alarm. Often times the alarm sounds early on to wake us up before things have fallen apart. Sometimes people think they have to hit rock bottom before they come to their senses, but what if God is trying to wake you up right now to save you from heartbreak in the Distant Country later? 2 Chronicles 36:15 speaks of how God sounds the alarm to warn his peo...
