In this five-day devotional, we’ll discover what Scripture teaches about spiritual blindness, why it happens, and how Jesus alone can open our eyes. 

Spiritual Blindness

The Word of God is full of promises-promises that He will never leave us, that He will strengthen us, and that He will guide us when we trust in Him. Through every challenge and victory, you can experience firsthand the truth that God is always faithful. He doesn't promise that the path will always be easy, but He promises to walk with us every step of the way.

Promises

Encouragement is something that we all need and desire – whether it be a kind word or a helping hand to push us towards our goals. The Bible includes many examples of believers encouraging one another, as well as God’s promises to us to never leave us, to always fight for us, to strengthen us and so on. Be emboldened as you read along with this plan. You’re amazing!

Having a Great Attitude

There are times when we may feel invisible, overlooked, rejected. Yet even though we are invisible to others, we are very much seen and loved by our heavenly Father. This five-day devotional by Kerry-Ann Lewis is a reminder that God is not limited by your invisibility in the eyes of others. He sees, knows, and cares and has a beautiful plan and purpose mapped out just for you.

Sometimes, the “hustle and bustle” of our days, with their challenges, can have an impact on otherwise positive outlooks. We can feel discouraged, disappointed, or even downright cranky about the vicissitudes of life that we encounter. What can help at moments like these is a change of perspective, accomplished by such things as a focus on worship, laughter, or a renewed determination to persevere. Let’s look at a few illustrations.
