Daily Devotional
Speed bumps, detours, and hurdles


BIBLE MEDITATION:

Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain. 1 Corinthians 9:24

DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:

I have a race to run. God has given you a race to run as well. Every man runs his own race. We’re not racing against each other to win the victor’s crown. We’re on a pilgrimage together. I’m not trying to outrun you; you’re not trying to outrun me. That’s good news!

God has a plan for your life. It will contain some speed bumps, detours, and hurdles to cross. You must stay in the race until it’s over—but you’re not running alone!

ACTION POINT:

Though we are not in the same race, we are in the journey together, so we encourage one another to win. And I want you to win the victor’s crown today! Run, my friend, run!

Real Truth Never Changes

Real truth never changes, and the truth about government is that it is God who ordains it, leaders who are responsible for it, and citizens who are accountable to it. The privilege of being called Americans comes with significant responsibilities—to God, to each other, and to the world.
