Devotion on Trust, 1 Corinthians 15:57. 2 pages.
But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 15:57).
As the Holy Spirit leads us through Word and Sacrament to know the truth of God’s Word and to know we stand on solid ground through faith in Him, He enables us to better live out this truth. There is no grand formula to be shared. It’s simply that we trust in the Word and promise of God to be exactly what it says it is: a life-giving Word and promise.

Devotion on Christian Living, Service, Galatians 5:13b. 1 page.
Through love serve one another (Galatians 5:13b).
Do you ever think it’s a burden to be a Christian? All those things God commands us to do, all those things people expect us to do, can really wear us out. Is being a Christian really supposed to be like that?

Devotion on Encouragement, Care-giving, Ephesians 5:1–2. 2 pages.
Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children. And walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God (Ephesians 5:1–2).
Too often people think compassionate care is a twenty-four hour, seven day a week commitment. In reality, giving even an hour per week can be a tremendous blessing to someone with a chronic illness who is homebound or in a nursing home.

Devotion on Fear, Anxiety, Trust, Comfort, Philippians 4:5b-7. 2 pages.
The Lord is at hand; do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:5b–7).
In today’s world it is very hard to find someone who is not afraid of anything. Most everyone is afraid of something, be it snakes, storms, heights, or loss. What are you afraid of?

Devotion on Advent, Christian Living, Galatians 4:4. 2 pages.
But when the fullness of time had come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons (Galatians 4:4).
Even though we have been redeemed from sin and death through the death and resurrection of our Savior, we still sin. As even the highest-paid professional players sometimes fumble the ball or miss the basket, in the game of life-Christian mode, we too sometimes mess up. Like those erring athletes we need a “time-out.”
The season of Advent can be considered a “time out” for Christians. During this time (as well as during other times of the church year), the Holy Spirit works in us to reset our clocks and to strengthen our faith as we live for Him.
[To prepare: Make a copy of the “T-I-M-E” clock face found at the end of this devotion. Hang on a wall to display. Make copies of the “TREASURE,” “INSPIRE,” “MEDITATE,” and “EVANGELIZE” word cards found at the end of this devotion. Cut out each card. Have adhesive tape ready to attach words to the clock at the proper time in the devotion.]

Devotion on Missions, Isaiah 6:8. 2 pages.
And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” Then I said, “Here am I! Send me” (Isaiah 6:8).
Unlike Isaiah’s eager response, my initial reaction when asked to join a Haiti mission team was “Who, me? I’m a hot-headed, socially clumsy, middle-aged, adult convert from the backwoods. What credentials do I have to offer a team of experienced mission trippers?” I thought.

Devotion on Stress, Psalm 46:10a. 1 page.
“Be still, and know that I am God” (Psalm 46:10a).
As I raced around gathering books and papers for another full day of teaching, my eyes glanced over the wall hanging of Psalm 46:10. Many thoughts rushed through my brain, already frustrated from running late. “Be still? Really? I can’t; there’s so much to do!”
