Day 14: Remember and Seek Him

Devotion:
When you’re tired or overwhelmed, it’s easy to let your focus drift. The weight of responsibilities and challenges can cloud your view of just how amazing God truly is. In those moments, His faithfulness, strength, and provision can feel distant—but they’re not. He hasn’t gone anywhere. Reconnecting with Him starts with remembering all He’s done and leaning into the strength only He can provide.

God isn’t asking you to power through on your own. He’s inviting you to come closer, to pause and reflect on the ways He’s already shown up for you. Every answered prayer, every moment of peace, every time He’s carried you when you couldn’t carry yourself—they’re all reminders of His love and care.

Today, let your focus shift from the overwhelm to Him. Whisper, “God, I need You, and I trust You’ve got me.” Seek Him in the small moments, the quiet pauses, and the middle of the chaos. Because no matter how heavy life feels, His strength is always enough, and His presence is always near.

Prayer:
Lord, help me to seek You with my whole heart and remember all the ways You’ve been faithful. Amen.
