Not because I don’t believe in prayer. Not because I don’t have needs. But because somewhere along the way, I decided other people’s needs were bigger… more important… more deserving of attention than mine. So I stay quiet. I tell myself I can pray on my own. I minimize. I wait. I rank my needs. And sometimes, I don’t even bring certain things to God because they feel too small, too personal, or too selfish.  But Scripture...]]></description><link>https://dailydevotional4.wixsite.com/daily-devotional/post/when-asking-feels-selfish</link><guid isPermaLink="false">698600c62afb5c3741be5a15</guid><pubDate>Fri, 06 Feb 2026 14:55:44 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="http://youtu.be/ehz9a1BqnCA?si=GEd48SOvr-LODwfF" length="0" type="video"/><dc:creator>Daily Devotional</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[God can &#38; God will]]></title><description><![CDATA[For a long time, my faith sounded like this: God can. God can heal. God can restore. God can move. And while that’s true, I’m realizing it’s time to live with the faith of God will. But that shift hasn’t been easy. Because when you’ve prayed with everything in you before…  when you’ve believed for a miracle before… and the outcome wasn’t what you asked for, your faith learns to add disclaimers like… “But You  have the final say.” or “But what if I believe You will… and You don’t?” Five years...]]></description><link>https://dailydevotional4.wixsite.com/daily-devotional/post/god-can-god-will</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69828497322c09b8312d4612</guid><pubDate>Tue, 03 Feb 2026 23:29:48 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="http://youtu.be/QS04WbSnxok?si=xOYenH572Ub9eYOy" length="0" type="video"/><dc:creator>Daily Devotional</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[The God Who Flips the Script]]></title><description><![CDATA[Have you ever felt overlooked like you’re the “low tree” in a forest full of tall ones? Maybe others seem to be thriving while you’re just trying to stay rooted. Ezekiel 17:24 reminds us that God has the final word over promotion, growth, and destiny. In this verse, God declares that He  is the one who can bring down what seems unshakable and raise up what seems forgotten. The “tall tree” symbolizes pride, power, and self-dependence. The “low tree” represents humility, dependence, and trust...]]></description><link>https://dailydevotional4.wixsite.com/daily-devotional/post/the-god-who-flips-the-script</link><guid isPermaLink="false">698251c5f1c6744fd019eebf</guid><pubDate>Tue, 03 Feb 2026 19:52:34 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="http://youtu.be/QaEx2A7p9Dk?si=2YdlT3jaBB8LUNu5" length="0" type="video"/><dc:creator>Daily Devotional</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Rooted Where God Plants You]]></title><description><![CDATA[“‘But I will take a tender shoot from the top of the cedar and plant it on a high and lofty mountain. On the mountain heights of Israel I will plant it; it will produce branches and bear fruit and become a splendid cedar.’” – Ezekiel 17:22–23 (NIV) Ezekiel 17 paints a vivid parable of two eagles and a vine… a story of misplaced trust and divine restoration.

I don’t even know why... I’m the type of person who loves consistency and doesn’t always adapt well to change. But this time, I felt led to take a new path. As I walked, I quickly realized it wasn’t the easiest route. It was muddy, uneven, and much longer than I expected. I found myself sweating, huffing, and puffing along the way.

My goodness, it was quiet. After my walk, I sat in my car, watching the leaves fall gently from the branches. The air was crisp, the wind brushed my face, birds sang softly in the distance, and a deer ran across the open field. It was so simple, yet so breathtaking. In that moment, I realized how much beauty there is in silence.

(Romans 1:20) Maybe that’s why I love traveling and seeing new places.... the canyons, the mountains, the sunsets, every bit of it reveals the creativity and beauty of God’s work. Recently, after a walk, I sat in my car and just stared at a tree. Its leaves were turning yellow and falling off the branches.

It’s not the kind of love story we’d expect. ..it  begins in abandonment, moves through rescue, and ends in betrayal. Yet even in betrayal, it reveals the shocking depth of God’s grace.

There are moments when one big wave hits, and you catch your breath, but other times... it feels like wave after wave, crashing one right after another. You try to stand, but the current pulls; you reach for air, but before you recover, another wave comes. I’ve had those moments where life felt like too much. The bills, the waiting, the health scares, the losses... all piling up like waves that just won’t stop.

I was reading the account of Jesus calming the storm as He and His disciples crossed the Sea of Galilee. It’s found in Matthew 8:23–27, and if you haven’t read it before, I encourage you to take a moment and read it for yourself. That way God can speak to you just as he spoke to me.
