Daily Love Letters from God

“When we receive Christ as our savior, we are enlisted in God’s great army” - Wesleyne It’s your desire as a Christian to fulfill that special calling God has placed on your life. Right? However, many make the mistake of believing that God will clunk them over the head, use a megaphone, or provide a magical ‘burning bush’ experience to reveal their purpose. We wait, we wonder, and we get frustrate...

“When we receive Christ as our savior, we are enlisted in God’s great army” - Wesleyne Do you know that you don't need to do anything else for God to begin to use you now? You don't have to read another paperback book, listen to another sermon, memorize another scripture, plant another seed gift, or repeat another creed or confession. You don't even need to attend another church service before God...

“Faith is simply believing that the Lord is who He says He is and will do what He says He will do” - Wesleyne Faith is at the center of Christian life. We profess that we have been saved by faith and that we now live by faith. But what does it really mean to have faith? What does it really mean to believe? Faith in the Lord means having confidence that God is good, that He’s on your side, and that...

“When we honor God, we experience heavenly harvest that will help us to taste and see for ourselves that the Lord is good” - Wesleyne Have you ever gone through a situation in life that left you wondering why God would allow you to experience the hurt, pain, or even discouragement that resulted? There is no doubt that some challenges in life are the result of poor choices, but for every believer,...

“The love we crave is found in Christ alone” - Wesleyne Romantic love is a wonderful gift from God, but all of our relational needs cannot be met in one relationship. We need more than romantic love to be truly fulfilled and happy. There are loads of clichés about love. “Love is all we need.” “I married my best friend.” Songs invite couples into an “us against the world” mentality. But these clich...

“Relationships that are formed specially by God are stronger than any other kind” - Wesleyne The Word of God calls upon us to imitate and follow the examples of Christ and God the Father. But it also tells us to follow the Godly people around us, and to strive, by Christ’s help, to be Godly people who can be followed by others. Today, you will learn why that’s vital. To find Godly people who canno...

“If you will give God what little you have, He will have the chance to be the provider. He longs to be for you” - Wesleyne Are you anxious about your future, your relationships, or your calling? One of God's greatest names is Jehovah Jireh, our Provider. “Provision” isn’t a word most people think much about. It’s a weightless word to us. We may use it euphemistically when we stock up on “provision...

“Continue doing the right thing even when the right thing seems hard” - Wesleyne God cares about unethical business practices. He hates it when people are dishonest. You can choose to live according to the values of the world or according to the values of the Word of God. Christians who make the decision to follow the teachings of Jesus believe they will receive an eternal reward for having done t...

“If you don’t give your burdens to Jesus, your life will become a burden and your problems will weigh you down and hold you back” - Wesleyne BURDENS. We all get loaded down with them. Finances, strained marriages and broken relationships, emotional trauma, failing health, unexpected grief, you name it and it can be a crushing weight. Burdens hang on us like a wet blanket to steal our joy and zap o...

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not to your own understanding” - Wesleyne People all over the world have been known to tie all sorts of things around their necks to make sure they don’t lose them. More often than not, it is their most prized possessions; keys, wedding rings, and the like. It’s a really good place to keep things you’d rather not lose. Today, God will encourage you t...

“You are pleasant and your path is full of peace” - Wesleyne Worldly self-esteem bases your worth on appearance, possessions, and accomplishments. Whether high or low, this kind of esteem is prideful, focuses on the self, and doesn’t add value to your life. It minimizes your potential for growth and influence.  On the other hand, today you will learn that self-image based upon the value God h...

“God doesn’t want you to internalize your pain, He wants you to forgive” - Wesleyne Most of us have at least some understanding of the fact that we are supposed to forgive. But why? And more importantly, how? We have heard about forgiveness from the time we were small. Hearing things like “move on,” and “just forgive him/her.” The idea has even been spouted in common phrases in our common vernacul...

“When you need strength, call on the Lord” - Wesleyne What comes to mind when you hear the word “refuge”? You probably think of a well-built house with huge walls to keep your enemies out. Maybe you think of a person you trust to hold you tightly and defend you against whatever is troubling you. Or, maybe, for you, a refuge is being able to defend yourself and defeat whatever troubles might come y...

“Fear no evil for He is with you” - Wesleyne Do you have a tendency to imagine the worst? Do you fear evil? Do you combat an unfounded, irrational fear that keeps you from enjoying life? Fearful thoughts will always come. You can’t prevent that. And they will not all be unfounded or irrational. Some will be justifiable and shake you to the core. Today, you will learn that if you allow the truth of...

“He will not allow your enemies to triumph over you” - Wesleyne We’re always told to have faith and to trust God. In some situations, that’s easier said than done. Sometimes we think things will be easier if we take them into our own hands. Putting all your trust in God is certainly not easy, but it will be worth it. Today, you will learn why it will be worth it. God knows everything you’re going...

“As we trust Him, God lavishes his blessings on us from his stores of goodness” - Wesleyne Past sins and mistakes can weigh us down and make us think we are not worthy of God’s love or we must earn His love. God does not give salvation based on deeds or works but based on a relationship with His son, Jesus. His grace is open to all people regardless of past sins. Today, you will learn that God ext...

“How we see ourselves doesn't change how God sees us” - Wesleyne Comparison: we call it the thief of joy. It constantly causes us to feel inadequate and unworthy. It tries to rip us apart, make us over-examine our flaws, and tell us we aren’t good enough. We live in a society that encourages us to be different and unique, to embrace our imperfections and see them as beautiful, yet it also tries to...

“The key to overcoming our insecurities is to put our security in Christ” - Wesleyne Confidence in Christ can be a difficult thing to wrap your mind around because, in our world, confidence is always rooted in you, your goodness, your abilities, your personality, your words, your successes, and your actions. But confidence in Christ is rooted in God alone. You can be confident because of what He h...

“You are trustworthy, industrious, organized and loving, so remember in all that you do, remember your virtues” - Wesleyne When someone is described as being virtuous, it sets them apart from others in character, strength, and morality. It’s a characteristic that can be found within the mindsets of several women in the Bible, from Ruth to Esther to Mary, as well as described of others through coun...

“You won’t know how powerful God is until you actually need him to show up” - Wesleyne Have you ever felt like your life is not in the center of God's will? If you have then you're not alone. One of the most central messages of Christianity is God bringing a purpose that brings both success and satisfaction. You probably know that God has a plan for you, but did you know that that plan won't take...

“God heals all broken things. He mends them. You can’t see beyond your current situation, but God sees it” - Wesleyne There are so many things that can break our hearts. Charles Spurgeon puts it this way: “There are many sorts of broken hearts, and Christ is good at healing them all.” So, what can break your heart? The death of a loved one. A job can break your heart. The end of a friendship. A ch...

“If God has forgiven you, why are you still holding on to the pain. Release the pain. Repent. Speak to God and know that He will restore you” - Wesleyne Many of the most common troubles in Christian life come from relating to God as if He was like us, as if His kindness was as slight as our kindness, His forgiveness as reluctant as our forgiveness, His patience as fleeting as our patience. Under i...

“If you feel like you’re broken in a million different pieces, your heart has been shattered, your soul has been shattered, know that God is the best builder there is. He can take all those broken pieces and make you whole” - Wesleyne The unknown is scary. It’s hard to not want to control how your future will turn out. We get anxious if things don’t go as planned. We doubt God’s ability to lead an...

“When we meditate on God, He becomes the biggest thing in our lives” - Wesleyne Do you ever stop to meditate on God’s majesty and power? Sometimes it feels easy for us to remember how great and powerful God is. Other times, when we fall into a routine and don’t make intentional time for Him, it can feel harder.  Regardless of where you fall in this spectrum, today you will be reminded that yo...

“We may not always understand God, but we should desire to know Him more” - Wesleyne There are many things we don’t understand about how God does things and in this life in general. Therefore, asking questions is a natural response when we are faced with unexpected circumstances. Going before God, the Author of Life, with our questions and concerns, is, of course, not wrong. Today, you will learn...
