“Who being the brightness of His glory and the express image of His person, and upholding all things by the word of His power, when He had by Himself purged our sins, sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high.” Hebrews 1:3 (NKJV)

When we desire God’s direction, we often wonder how He speaks to His children. Hebrews reminds us that God has spoken most clearly through His Son, Jesus Christ. If we want to know God’s heart, character, and will, we need only look to Jesus.

Jesus is the brightness of God’s glory. He perfectly reveals the Father to us and shows us what God is like. Not only that, but He upholds all things by His powerful word. The same Savior who created the universe is sustaining it even now. Nothing is outside His control.

Because Jesus purged our sins through His sacrifice on the cross, we can confidently come into God’s presence and follow His leading. While everything around us may change, fade, or perish, Christ remains forever. In an uncertain world, we can trust the One who never changes.

Today’s Truth:

God speaks to us through His Son.

Jesus is the brightness of God’s glory.

He upholds all things by His power.

He has cleansed us from our sins.

He remains when everything else passes away.

Reflection:

How can you focus more on Jesus today as you seek God’s direction and leadership in your life?

Living Led by Jesus is not always easy. We do not know what tomorrow holds, and there are times when trials, temptations, and difficult decisions leave us wondering which way to turn.

In those moments, God does not expect us to figure everything out on our own. Instead, He invites us to come to Him and ask for wisdom.

James reminds us that trials have a purpose.

As we learn to trust God through difficulties, patience grows in our hearts and matures our faith. Rather than resisting every hardship, we can choose to view trials through the lens of God’s greater work in our lives. He is shaping us, strengthening us, and teaching us to depend on Him.

When confusion comes, ask God for wisdom in faith. He is a generous Father who delights in guiding His children. As you seek Him, endure temptation, and continue walking in obedience, you will discover the blessing of a life led by His wisdom rather than your own understanding.

Today’s Truth:

  • Count trials a joy, for they produce patience.

  • Patience helps us mature spiritually.

  • Ask God for wisdom in faith.

  • Endure temptation and receive God’s blessing.

Reflection:

What situation in your life right now requires God’s wisdom? Take a few moments to ask Him for guidance and trust Him to lead your next step.

“God is our refuge and strength,
A very present help in trouble.
Therefore we will not fear...”

I am claiming Psalm 46 for my current season of life.

Today, as I read this psalm, God allowed me to see it in a fresh way.

Isn’t it amazing how familiar passages can speak to our hearts differently depending on what we are walking through?

Right now, I find myself in a season that is incredibly busy, yet surprisingly peaceful. There is much to do, many responsibilities to manage, and countless opportunities before me. Yet beneath it all, there is a quiet confidence that comes from knowing God is in control.

From past experience, I know how quickly life can change.

I have lived through difficult seasons filled with stress, uncertainty, and challenges I never expected.

Those experiences have taught me that peace is not found in easy circumstances but in the presence of God.

As we learned on Day Two, I am choosing to trust God with all my heart and not lean on my own understanding.

No matter what lies ahead, I know my Shepherd is leading the way.

As I read Psalm 46, five truths stood out to me:

  • God is my refuge and strength.

  • God helps me in trouble.

  • Be still.

  • Know that He is God.

  • God is with me.

What comfort there is in knowing that God is both our refuge and our strength.

He is the place we run when life becomes overwhelming, and He is the strength that carries us when we can no longer stand on our own.

Whether your current season is peaceful or difficult, busy or uncertain, remember this: God is with you.

  • He is your refuge.

  • He is your strength.

  • And He will faithfully lead you every step of the way.

Journaling Prompt:

Which of these five truths do you need most today?

How does knowing that God is your refuge and strength help you trust His leading in your current season?

The castle and the word ‘refuge’ were painted with watercolors. Markers were used for the rest of the lettering (which is simply my own handwriting).

Romans 8:1 (NKJV)

One of the greatest blessings of belonging to Jesus is knowing that we are no longer condemned. Because of Christ's sacrifice, we are free to walk in a new way—not controlled by our old sinful nature, but guided by the Holy Spirit.

Spirit-led walking is a daily choice. As we surrender our thoughts, attitudes, and actions to God, the Holy Spirit helps us put to death fleshly desires and grow in obedience. He gently directs our steps, convicts us when we wander, and reminds us that we are dearly loved children of God.

Through the Spirit, we can confidently cry, "Abba, Father," knowing we have been adopted into God's family. Even when following Christ brings challenges or suffering, we can trust that He is with us every step of the way. The same Spirit who leads us also strengthens, comforts, and assures us of our eternal inheritance in Christ.

Reflection:
In what area of your life is the Holy Spirit inviting you to surrender your own way and follow His leading today?

“Trust in the LORD with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths.”

Today, we come to one of the most beloved passages in Scripture. These verses remind us that following God’s leading begins with trust.

  • Trust in the LORD.

  • Lean not on yourself.

  • Acknowledge Him.

  • He shall direct your journey.

Trusting God sounds simple until life becomes confusing.

We often want to know where God is leading, why He is allowing certain circumstances, and how everything will work out. Yet God rarely gives us the entire map. Instead, He asks us to trust Him one step at a time.

As sheep following our Good Shepherd, we do not always understand the path before us.

Sometimes the road seems uncertain, painful, or completely different from what we expected. During those seasons, we may question whether God knows what He is doing.

The truth is that our Shepherd sees what we cannot. He knows the destination, the dangers ahead, and the lessons He wants to teach us along the way.

His guidance is never random, and His love never fails.

Grasping the wider implications of what Jesus said about being our Good Shepherd helps us immensely during times when we wonder why He is leading us down such a confusing and painful path.

We often have no clue what God is doing right now.

The crucial truth is that we don’t need to know. We simply need to trust.

Journaling Prompt:

What situation in your life feels uncertain right now?

How can you choose to trust God’s wisdom instead of leaning on your own understanding?

My journal is a combination of watercolor paint and markers. I first wrote and drew it out in pencil.

The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep.

Jesus is the Good Shepherd. He leads with love, protects with care, and calls His sheep by name. Unlike the thief who comes to steal, kill, and destroy, Jesus came to give life—abundant life.

Sheep need a shepherd. They are not meant to wander, strive, or figure everything out alone. In the same way, we are not meant to lead ourselves apart from Jesus. Living led begins with surrendering our own way and learning to recognize His voice.

Jesus knows His sheep, and His sheep follow Him. The more time we spend with Him in His Word, the more familiar His voice becomes. We begin to notice His gentle leading in everyday choices, quiet nudges, and moments of conviction.

Today, ask yourself: Am I listening for the voice of my Good Shepherd, or am I trying to lead myself?

Journaling Prompt:
Where do I need to surrender control and let Jesus shepherd my heart today?

Sheep: a tip-in that folds. Painted with watercolors

After going through extremely tough years, God chose to give Joseph a position of authority in Pharaoh’s kingdom.

This would fulfill the prophecy in his dreams from when he was a teenager.

God loves to use the impossible and difficult in our lives to help others. That’s what He did in Joseph’s life, and he is likely doing it in your lives too.

Journaling Art

Do you feel inadequate when it comes to journaling? Do you criticize your drawings or paintings?

Just like God was still working in Joseph’s imperfect and painful journey, He is also working through our imperfect journaling pages.

Sometimes we focus so much on what doesn’t look right that we miss the beauty of simply showing up and spending time with Jesus.

Every sketch, painted page, and handwritten verse is part of the process of growing—not perfection.

Grace-filled journaling is less about creating flawless art and more about creating space for God to speak to your heart.

The keeper of the prison did not look into anything that was under Joseph’s authority, because the Lord was with him; and whatever he did, the Lord made it prosper. Genesis 39:23

Joseph’s circumstances were unfair, yet God’s presence never left him—not even in prison.

Sometimes we think God’s blessing only shows up in comfortable places, but Joseph’s life reminds us that the Lord is with us in hard seasons, too.

Even behind prison walls, God caused Joseph to prosper and gave him favor with others.

When life feels confining or disappointing, we can trust that God is still working faithfully behind the scenes for His purposes.

How has God been showing Himself strong in your life?

And his brothers said to him, “Shall you indeed reign over us? Or shall you indeed have dominion over us?” So they hated him even more for his dreams and for his words. Genesis 37:8

And his brothers ENVIED him, but his father kept the matter in mind. Genesis 37:11

Envy is when we desperately want what someone else possesses.

It might be a material possession of favor.

Joseph had something his brothers wanted. He had their father’s favoritism, demonstrated in a gift of a colorful coat.

As women, we can be tempted in similar ways. We compare ourselves to other women.

Let’s not let envy get the better of us by going to drastic lengths as Joseph’s brothers did!!

My name, Judith, is found in Genesis, but Judith in the Bible does not have the reputation that comes with godly character. She was a ‘grievance’ to her in-laws!!

Judith was a Hittite woman, the daughter of Beeri, and one of Esau’s wives, whose marriage caused significant family tension.

When Esau was forty years old, he took Judith the daughter of Beeri the Hittite to be his wife, and Basemath the daughter of Elon the Hittite, and they made life bitter for Isaac and Rebekah.Genesis 26:34

Even if, like me, your name is connected with grief and sorrow, with God’s help, you can make a ‘good name’ for yourself.

Esau took his wives from the Canaanites: Adah the daughter of Elon the Hittite, Oholibamah the daughter of Anah the daughter of Zibeon the Hivite, Genesis 36:2

Recently, after reading Genesis 26:34 and Genesis 36:2, I looked up the meaning of my name. It has a wonderful meaning in Hebrew.

Meanings for Judith

  • It is the feminine form of the name, Judah

  • “Woman of God”

  • “Praised” or “Celebrated”

  • “To Praise”

  • “Give Thanks”
