Isaiah 64:4 - "For since the beginning of the world men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, beside thee, what he hath prepared for him that waiteth for him." Waiting for God's timing is not easy because it makes us uncomfortable. However, the faith we gain in that waiting is the prize that makes us forget the discomfort. And the blessings are always so much greater than the discomfort. - Steve Boots

Proverbs 16:3 - "Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be established."  God wants us to obey even though we may not understand.  Once we obey, we will begin to grow in our understanding. - John Mark Brothers

Job 19:25 - "For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:"  No matter what trials we face each week or how crazy & confused the world gets, we have many great promises from our Lord that we can hold on to.  I'm excited about one day seeing this promise fulfilled, getting to meet & worship our Saviour, and being reunited with those that are with Him already! - Jason Barrett

Jeremiah 1:5 - "Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations." Let's remember that God has something special planned for each of our children. Let's try to cultivate that as much as possible and let's try not to push them towards what we want them to do.  They will only truly be comfortable in life if they are doing the will of God for their lives. - Jason Myers

Isaiah 40:31a - "But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles..." I read a statement recently that put a new light on this verse. When a momma eagle wants her baby to fly, she gets him to step off a high cliff. God has given that eaglet the body structure, muscles, feathers, and everything he needs in order to fly. He just needs to take that step of faith. So "don't be a chicken, be an eagle." - Garrett Longest

Proverbs 4:26 - “Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established.”  Proverbs 4 gives Godly advice from a father to his children.  Our children, grandchildren and others watch us, so let’s make sure our steps and ways are on the right path.  “Acorns don’t fall far from the oak tree” as Pastor has stated in reference to our children as they grow up.  Let’s be consistent in our walk with Christ. - Clifford Myers

2 Chronicles 15:12 - "And they entered into a covenant to seek the Lord God of their fathers with all their heart and with all their soul." There is no better way to start each day, than to want God's will in our lives and pray for it.  - Phil Dann
