Overcoming

The Lord will keep you safe. He will not let you fall into a trap. ~ Proverbs 3:26 (GNT)

...overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us. ~ Romans 8:37b (NLT)

KEY IDEA:
Christ leads us to overcome obstacles.
PRAYER:
Lord, the world is a dangerous place but thankfully you are the source of our safety. We can trust you to lead us to victory over all the challenges and obstacles life throws at us. I'm not a very trusting person and there are times when I feel like I have to secure my own victories and generate my own safety. Forgive me for doubting your ability or even your love. And help me to think about victory in a new way so that I can honor Christ who is the one who overcame the worst obstacle of all -- death. Amen.
