What do you need today?

What do you need today to be the person God has called you to be? What do you need to be faithful?  What do you need to accomplish great things for Him?

Let’s take the conversation out of the clouds. What do you need to be nice to your co-workers?

What do you need to not get frustrated with your spouse?

What do you need to not get angry with you children?

What do you need to not give into peer pressure today at school?

What do you need to think of yourself as someone of precious worth?

Whatever it is, you have it today.  Listen to the words of 2 Peter 1:3

By his divine power, God has given us everything we need for living a godly life. We have received all of this by coming to know him, the one who called us to himself by means of his marvelous glory and excellence.

By God’s power, you’ve got it.  Through knowing Jesus, you’ve got it.

You’ve got everything you need. Through a relationship with Jesus, you’ve got everything you need to be who God is calling you to be, to do what God is calling you to do, to live as God is calling you to live.

Through Jesus, there’s not anything that is impossible.  You can be nice. And forgiving. And strong. And faithful. And brave. And patient.  Through Jesus you can do it all.

So, today, in those moments when you hear the whispers. When you hear the temptation. When you hear the doubts. When you hear the fear. When you feel the anger. When you think you can’t do it.

Remember, you’ve got everything you need. Through Jesus, you’ve got it all. Turn to Him. In your trials, your worries, your troubles.

Turn to Him.

And in Him, you’ll find everything you need.
