QUESTIONS FOR REFLECTION
I have a challenge for you today. Find a time to sit and wait on God. Give God the space to come in and hold you, showing you His protection over your life. He wants us to surrender our fearful hearts to the One who loves us and invites the fearful to come to Him rather than run away from Him in shame. One day, Jesus will wipe away every last one of our tears with hands scarred by the nails He took for our sins, and we will forever be at peace.
Some questions to reflect:
- What giants do you need to surrender to Him? Anxiety, fear, family circumstances, friendships, etc.
- What is it right now in your life that you are trying to avoid?
- Read Romans 5:8 and reflect on how that verse speaks to/impacts you.
LET’S PRAY: Heavenly Father, thank you for caring deeply for my heart. When my giants seem too big, remind me you have already won the battle. You are bigger and more powerful than any giants that try to take me down. 1 Peter 5:7 says to cast my cares on you because you care for me. You have not left me alone, God. Remind me daily that you are speaking, listening, and loving me. Help me use the small things in my life to bring glory and victory in your name. Help me bring glory to your name through the pain and the battle. You provide hope and joy even in the trial, and I know in the struggle is where my relationship with you only grows deeper and more intimate. Use my story to bring hope to others. I love you, Father. Thank you for using every area of my life because, in you, nothing goes to waste. In your name, Amen.

About this Plan
Take a moment and think about your favorite brands, like Nike, Gucci, Apple, etc. If you saw someone wearing that brand, what would you typically associate with them? Being branded can mean either having a brand name or it can also mean being marked. If anyone in the Bible knows what it is like to be branded, it is David in the Old Testament.
