Today’s Reading
Ephesians 3:14-21
I pray that out of his glorious riches [God] may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being. – Ephesians 3:16 (NIV)
It is important to take care of our inner being. I know that if I don’t take care of my mental health properly, I will suffer.
One afternoon, I went for a walk. I saw that my neighbor was cleaning his car. He was meticulous and careful, cleaning every little part.
As I watched him, I was reminded of how important it is to clean our minds and hearts every day. What is weighing us down? What do we need to give to God?
I am a better Christian, sister, wife, friend, mentor, and servant when I spend time with God examining my inner world.
God wants to strengthen our inner being. God will always help us to renew our hearts and minds so we can shine from the inside out.
Today’s Prayer
Dear God, help us to grow in our spiritual health as you strengthen our inner being. As Jesus taught us, we pray, “Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth. Give us day by day our daily bread. And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil” (Luke 11:2-4, KJV). Amen.
Thought for the Day
Today I will take time to examine my heart.
