2/4–Grant And Best Buds Forgiving

Scripture:

Matthew 6:14-15

For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

I couldn’t decide whether to go to Salt Lake City or Denver for vacation, so I called the airlines to get prices. “Airfare to Denver is $300,” the cheery salesperson replied. “And what about Salt Lake City?” “We have a really great rate to Salt Lake—$99,” she said “But there is a stopover.” “Where?” “In Denver,” she said.  

Keep Going Even When You Can’t See The Goal Yet

February 2 sits quietly on the calendar. It’s not a holiday. It doesn’t shout for attention. It’s just another day—and that’s exactly why it matters.

Most breakthroughs don’t happen on big, dramatic days. They happen on ordinary ones like today.

By now, the excitement of a new year may be fading. The resolutions that felt so strong a month ago might feel a little heavier. You’ve been doing the right things, but you may be wondering, “Is this even making a difference?”

Let me encourage you today: just because you don’t see results yet doesn’t mean nothing is happening.

Think about seeds planted in the ground. For a while, it looks like nothing is going on. The soil is quiet. The surface doesn’t change. But underneath, roots are forming, strength is developing, and life is preparing to break through.

Your efforts are like that.

Every prayer you pray

Every kind word you speak

Every step you take forward—even the small ones

Every time you choose faith over fear

None of it is wasted.

Scripture reminds us in Galatians 6:9:

“Let us not grow weary in doing good, for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.”

Notice it says due season—not immediate season.

February 2 is a reminder to stay faithful in the middle, to trust the process, and to keep showing up even when motivation feels low. You don’t have to feel strong to be faithful. You just have to keep going.

If today feels ordinary, let it be extraordinary in one simple way:

Choose encouragement over discouragement Gratitude over grumbling Hope over doubt

Those small choices add up.

So take a breath today. Lift your head. You’re further along than you think. God is still working, and your story is still unfolding.

Keep going. Your February matters. Your faithfulness matters. And you matter.

2/2—Start Your Day Off Right Series

My Anniversary // Groundhog Day

Quote:

The things that you are passionate about are not random,they are your calling!

Story:

The snow covered the ground where three lads were playing. A man came along and said to them, “Would you like to try a race and the winner receive a prize?” 

   The boys agreed and the man told them that his race was to be different. “I will go to the other side of the field,” he said, “and when I give you the signal, you will start to run. The one whose footsteps are the straightest in the snow will be the winner.” 

   The race commenced and the first boy kept looking at his feet to see if his steps were straight. The second lad kept looking at his companions to see what they were doing; but the third boy just ran on with his eyes steadfastly fixed on the man on the other side of the field. 

   The third lad was the winner, for his footsteps were straight in the snow. He had kept his eyes on the goal ahead of him. 

Scripture:

Psalms 1:1-3

Psalms

Blessed is the man

that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly,

nor standeth in the way of sinners,

nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.

But his delight is in the law of the LORD;

and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water,

that bringeth forth his fruit in his season;

his leaf also shall not wither;

and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

We Are Stronger When We Are Together

There’s something powerful about teamwork.

One person can do a lot—but when people come together with a shared purpose, amazing things happen.

Teamwork reminds us that we were never meant to walk this journey alone.

Think about it:

Even the strongest people get tired. Even the wisest people need counsel. Even the most determined people need encouragement. God designed life so that our strengths would cover someone else’s weaknesses—and their strengths would cover ours.

The Bible puts it plainly:

“Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labor. For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow.”

— Ecclesiastes 4:9–10

Teamwork doesn’t mean everyone does the same thing.

It means everyone does their part.

One plants.

Another waters.

Someone else encourages.

And together, the growth comes.

Sometimes we struggle with teamwork because we want control, recognition, or independence. But teamwork teaches humility. It teaches patience. It teaches trust. And in the end, it teaches love.

Even Jesus surrounded Himself with others. He taught them, corrected them, leaned on them, and sent them out together—not alone.

Here’s the truth we all need to remember today:

👉 You don’t have to do everything by yourself.

👉 Asking for help is not weakness—it’s wisdom.

👉 Being part of a team doesn’t shrink your value; it multiplies it.

So today, take a moment to appreciate the people God has placed around you. Encourage someone. Lend a hand. Be willing to receive help when you need it.

Because when we work together, pray together, and support one another—we go farther, grow stronger, and accomplish more than we ever could alone.

You were never meant to stand alone.

You were created to stand together.

Do You Soar Like An Eagle?

Is 40:28-31. Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard,
that the everlasting God, the LORD,
the Creator of the ends of the earth,
fainteth not, neither is weary?
there is no searching of his understanding.
He giveth power to the faint;
and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.
Even the youths shall faint and be weary,
and the young men shall utterly fall:
But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength;
they shall mount up with wings as eagles;
they shall run, and not be weary;
and they shall walk, and not faint.

2/1– Start Your Day Off Right Series

Quote:

2/1–We are told to let our light shine and if it does we won’t need to tell anybody that it does.

Lighthouses don’t fire cannons to call attention to their shining they just shine

Story: And we think we’ve got problems. Pastor Jack Hinton from New Bern, N.C. was leading music for a worship service held in a leper colony on the island of Tobago. There was time for one more selection. He asked for a request, and a woman who had been facing away from the pulpit turned around.

“I saw the most hideous face I had ever seen,” Jack says, “The woman’s nose and ears were entirely gone. Most of her lips had rotted away. “She lifted a fingerless hand in the air and asked, ‘Can we sing Count Your Many Blessings?’”

Overcome with emotion, Jack left the service. He was followed by a team member who said, “Jack, I guess you’ll never be able to sing that song again.” “Yes I will,” Jack replied, “but I’ll never sing it the same way again.”

That kind of changes our perspective, doesn’t it? How many blessings can you count?

Scripture:

Romans 12:3

For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.

Please Don’t Wind Up In Spiritual Intensive Care

Hebrews 5:11, 12 For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat. For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.
