Where is God showing you that you need His wisdom and strength? Don't be afraid to look in the mirror and see where you need to grow. But more importantly, don’t walk away without doing something about it. God is ready to help you, but you must take that step of faith.

Building your ark before it rains means developing the discipline to prepare for success, even when there’s no immediate sign of trouble or opportunity. It's about being ready when God opens the door for your next move.

Like a tree, you’ve been blessed to bear fruit—but that fruit is not for you alone. God blesses us so that we can bless others. The more we give, the more we grow, and the more God works through us to impact the world around us.

When you understand who you are—a child of God, a creator, and an overcomer—you begin to walk through life with confidence. You stop being defined by the trials around you and start defining the world around you through the power God has given you.

Zechariah 4:6 reminds us that true success doesn’t come from our might or power—it comes from the Spirit of God working in and through us. As you go about your week, take time to reflect on areas where you’ve been trying to force things, and ask God to help you let go and flow with His Spirit.

Jesus invites you to step away from the busyness, to come with Him to a quiet place, and get some rest. It’s not a sign of weakness—it’s a necessary part of living a healthy, fruitful, and purposeful life. Stay grounded in His Word and remember—you need to get some rest.

In the end, being a parent is the most profound gift you can give your child, far surpassing the role of simply being their friend.

As you go through your week, ask yourself: “What do I see?” And more importantly, “Am I trusting God to bring clarity and fullness in His timing?” Stay faithful, keep your eyes on Him, and remember—the full blessing is on the way.
