Write any phrases from the selected Bible verses that speak to you:
Envision taking a long new and unfamiliar trail walk with a map in hand. The idea of course is stay on the trail and follow the directions to the final destination. Similarly, because of our faith in Christ, we “walk in newness of life” (Romans 6:4). The challenge is to resist our old life of the flesh. Every day, He has a path for us to follow in which His word is our guide and His Spirit is our help. He promises to be with us every twist and turn.

Dear Lord,
Help us to remember your power. You own all things, and you operate all things. The more we realize who you are, the more our faith will grow, and then the more we can move forward in what you are calling us to do. You are Commander of all nature. Please be the Commander of our hearts. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
