Growing In Resilience: A Prayer Journey

DAY 2 OF 40

Big God

Remind yourself of God’s kingship and rule. ‘The Lord Most High is awesome’. 

'The trouble with many of us today', writes J. B. Phillips in Your God is too Small, is that ‘we have not found a god big enough for our modern needs’. 

As pressures compound we can allow our view of God to shrink. It can feel harder to believe that Jesus, who is often pictured in long robes walking between Judean villages, is equally at home in the hi-tech, silicon-chipped, finance dominated world of modern business. Yet He is not only ‘at home’, but Lord of all! 

The larger our view of God, the greater will be our ability to trust Him—trust Him with our work, our families, our health, our finances, and our future.

About this Plan

Growing In Resilience: A Prayer Journey

Whether confronted with difficult life events or extended periods of pressure, resilience helps us to emerge stronger, wiser, and with a deeper faith. Yet such resilience is not automatic – it involves behaviours, thoughts, and actions that are learned and practised over time. This 40-day prayer journey helps us develop practices to grow that resilience.
