Day 161 — Wednesday, June 10, 2026 Story — Do What You Know to Do: Turn to God When the Way Is Unclear Ever considered when there is an obstacle, a challenge, an opportunity in front of you — what do, or will, you do? What if you aren’t sure or don’t know what to do? What do you do when you don’t know what to do? There’s a message that has stayed with him for years, one that speaks directly to…

Day 160 — Tuesday, June 9, 2026 Story — Surrendering a Busy and Important Week to God The morning arrived with rain on the roof and a cool, grey sky hanging over the neighbourhood.

With earbuds in and the Word already playing, he headed outside to roll…

Day 159 — Monday, June 8, 2026 Story — Abiding Before Doing: Starting the Week in God’s Presence Waking up on a Monday morning with a long to-do list pressing in from every direction is a familiar feeling.

Day 158 — Sunday, June 7, 2026 Story — Twenty-Nine Years of Faithfulness: Trusting God for What Is Still to Come Twenty-nine years ago, God answered a prayer that had been quietly forming in a young man’s heart long before he fully understood what he was asking for.

Day 157 — Saturday, June 6, 2026 Story — Choosing Her: A Date Day, an Anniversary Eve, and the Gift of a Lifetime It is Saturday, and the alarm was never needed.

Twenty-nine years of marriage, twenty-nine years of God’s faithfulness…

Day 156 — Friday, June 5, 2026 Story — When God Speaks Through a Shepherd, a Song, and Still Waters God has a way of connecting the dots in ways that no one could plan on their own.

Day 154 — Wednesday, June 3, 2026 Story — Humpday, Holy Spirit, and the Stewardship of Every Hour Heading into Wednesday — or as some like to call it, Humpday — the idea of time comes to mind. Tuesdays and Wednesdays tend to be longer days with evening schedules packed with things like Be The Dads, Grow Nights, or First Wednesdays. Even though there is but a fixed amount of time in a day — 24…

Day 153 — Tuesday, June 2, 2026 Story — Seeking God’s Wisdom Before the Day Demands an Answer There is something significant about what happens before the day officially begins.

This morning, he woke a little earlier than expected,…

Day 152 — Monday, June 1, 2026 Story — From Information to Transformation: Putting God’s Word Into Practice Ever considered how much information is available to us?

Real transformation requires that information move from our heads into our hands and feet — from hearing into doing. We need to go beyond…

Day 151 — Sunday, May 31, 2026 Story — When God Redirects the Plan, He Never Derails the Purpose Yesterday ended on an incredible note after a start that had held so much uncertainty.

Day 150 — Saturday, May 30, 2026 Story — A Grateful Heart: How a Godly Wife Changes Everything This morning he woke up with one word on his heart — gratitude. Not the kind that shows up when things go perfectly, but the deep, settled kind that comes from looking back across years and seeing the fingerprints of God all over a life that could have turned out very differently. Before his feet hit…

Day 149 — Friday, May 29, 2026 Story — Finishing Strong When It Counts: Trusting God Over Self at the End of the Week What does finishing strong actually look like?

Day 147 — Wednesday, May 27, 2026 Story — Choosing Trust Over Understanding on Humpday Heading into today means heading into Humpday — that’s right, Wednesday, and already the midpoint of what is technically only the second day of the work week. It could be a day full of pressure, doubt, or second-guessing. But there is another way to face it. Rather than carrying the weight of uncertainty or…

Day 146 — Tuesday, May 26, 2026 Story — Casting the Weight of a Full Plate on the Only One Who Can Carry It Tuesday has arrived, but it does not feel like a typical Tuesday.
