Key Scriptures
For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb.
Psalm 139:13 ESV
For I am convinced [and continue to be convinced—beyond any doubt] that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present and threatening, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the [unlimited] love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 8:38-39 AMP
Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous! Do not be terrified or dismayed (intimidated), for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”

Start thinking and sharing.
Read Psalm 139:13. What does this verse reveal about God’s intentionality in creating you? Have you ever struggled to believe that God made you with care and purpose? How might embracing this truth give you courage in difficult times?
Read Romans 8:38-39. List everything this passage says cannot separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus. Do you ever struggle to believe that God’s love is truly unshakable? Is there something in your life that you have trouble forgiving yourself for, even though God already has? How might fully embracing God’s love give you courage?

Start praying. Be bold and pray with power.
God, we thank You for Your love, Your perfect will, and for who You are! Come and have Your way right now in each of our lives. We want to glorify You, Lord. Holy Spirit, pour out Your peace and confidence, and guide us to live a life that honors and glorifies You in every way. In Jesus’ name, we pray, Amen.
Start doing. Let's focus on prayer/reflection.
Let's build confidence this week by building on our understanding of who we are as members of God's family. Let's look at scripture. In Matthew 14:24-31, we read about a time when Jesus asked his disciples to "Take courage..." Take some time this week to dive into this story and build a habit of looking at Jesus and what he has to say about who we are as sons and daughters of His Kingdom.
