Passage: Psalm 118:5-6

Out of my distress I called on the Lord; the Lord answered me and set me free. The Lord is on my side; I will not fear. What can man do to me?

Reflection:

This year we want to prepare to trust the Lord in all circumstances. We cannot control what lies ahead, but we can strive to look to Him first in every situation. This is a daily discipline that we must work on. Remembering that the Lord is on our side and for us will help us navigate each moment we find ourselves in. No matter what comes before us, the Lord is our redeemer and refuge. Man has no hold on us. Christ is the victor over all things!
