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.
What are some recent praises or challenges in your faith walk?

For God alone my soul waits in silence; from him comes my salvation. He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall not be shaken. Psalm 62:1-2
Dear Lord,
You are our strong fortress for the present and our salvation for all eternity. Remind us of your strength and your love even in trials. Surround us and protect us. In you alone, we will not be shaken. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
