Daily Inspiration, Scripture, Meditation and Prayer
January 4

Faith is what lifts me to the level of possibility and opens the door to God's promises. Lord, continue to strengthen my belief and bless me with unyielding faith.

Scripture for the Day
"Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light." — Matthew 11:28-30

Meditation for the Day
I can believe that fundamentally all is well. Good things can happen to me. I believe that God cares for me and will provide for me. I need not try to plan ahead. I know that the way will unfold, step by step. I can leave tomorrow's burden to God, because God is the great burden-bearer. God only expects me to carry my one-day's share.

Prayer for the Day
I pray that I may not try to carry the burden of the universe on my shoulders. I pray that I may be satisfied to do my share each day.
