Step by Step: Growing in Faith, One Step at a Time. Sample

The choices we make often lead us to one of two things: worry or peace. When we make a choice that isn't wise, it leads to worrying about consequences. What will happen when people find out? Will my parents punish me? Will my friends still want to hang out with me? Why did I do that?! On the other hand, when you make wise choices, they will bring peace. Even if it isn’t an easy or popular choice, you’ll find peace knowing you’re walking toward the full life God wants for you.

Spend a moment thanking God for the peace available to you today. Then, pray for the Holy Spirit—God’s Spirit—to lead you toward good, wise choices for your life. Choices that bring peace!
