Pause: A Month of Peace in Five Minutes a DaySample
Proclaim
“And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” (Phil. 4:7)
Prompt
Everything you have, every good gift you’ve received—it’s all God’s.
When you give your life back to God, you’re not giving God anything you’ve earned. You’re just giving back what was already His.
I find great peace in this truth. Because it takes the pressure off. None of this is on me. It’s all on Him.
Every interaction with every person, every word I write, every phone call I take, every text message I send—those are God’s gifts, and I’m just giving them back to Him.
And in return, God gives me peace. Peace that transcends all understanding.
Prod
What can you give back to God today? Remember, you don’t have to carry it all, just give it up and get some PEACE!
Praise
Listen to “For All My Life” by TAYA
Pray
Jesus, I’m blown away by your gifts. Help me to see them for what they are, and then give me strength to give them back to you. I turn to you. I turn to you. I TURN TO YOU! I’m letting go and trusting you with everything. Thank you for carrying my burdens today! Amen.

About this Plan
Depression. Loneliness. Comparison. Greed. Addiction. People-pleasing. These are tools of the enemy to steal your calling and rob your joy. In this reading plan, drawn from his book, Lance Lang invites you to neutralize those tools by taking a pause each day, studying scripture, reading encouragement, taking action, and refocusing your attention on Jesus. Press forward into what God has for you. Press pause.
