Be The Light
Unlock Bold Influence Through Authentic Living
Scripture Focus
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight."
— Proverbs 3:5-6 (NIV)
Reflection:
In today’s world, it's easy to get caught up in comparison and perfectionism. Fear of judgment or rejection may cause us to hide behind polished images and curated stories. Yet, Proverbs 3:5-6 reminds us to trust God and submit to His guidance. True influence and impact are birthed when we align with His truth and embrace who He created us to be.
Galatians 6:4-5 encourages us to take joy in fulfilling our unique purpose rather than seeking validation from others. Your authenticity is your greatest strength. When you show up as your true self, you create connection and trust, allowing God to use your story to inspire and lead others.
Ask yourself: Are you holding back because of fear? What step can you take today to fully embrace your God-given authority?
Prayer:
Heavenly Father, Your Word declares that I am fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14). Today, I lay down the fear of judgment and rejection. I trust in You with all my heart and submit my ways to You, as Proverbs 3:5-6 teaches. Guide me to walk confidently in the truth of who You created me to be.
Lord, help me to overcome comparison and perfectionism. Strengthen my spirit to focus on the unique work You have given me, as Galatians 6:4-5 reminds me. Let my life reflect Your glory and inspire others to trust in You. I ask for courage to lead authentically, knowing that You have called and equipped me for this purpose.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
