VERSE
“When I am afraid, I put my trust in you.”
Psalm 56:3 (ESV)
ONE IDEA
Fear usually shows up before God’s next step for you. Not because God wants you afraid, but because fear
is the easiest way to keep you where you are. Today, the invitation is simple: you don’t have to feel
brave to move forward, you only have to be willing to trust.
Trust is not pretending you’re not scared. Trust is choosing to agree more with what God has spoken than with the worst-case scenarios in your head. Fear imagines everything that could collapse. Faith remembers Who is holding the pieces if it does.

ONE PRACTICAL STEP
Take 2 minutes and write down the one decision or situation that is making you feel small right now.
Under it, write this line:
“Today I choose to trust God more than I trust my fear in this area.”
Then, ask yourself: “What is one small action that would look like trust?” Send the message, submit the application, make the call, open the document — whatever the next small step is. Don’t wait to feel fearless. Move while trusting.

PRAYER
“Lord, You see every place where fear is louder than Your voice in my heart.
I give You the situation that’s weighing on me today. I choose to trust You with
what I can’t control, and I ask for courage to take the next step I can take.
Calm my thoughts and remind me You are with me in every detail. Amen.”
