01-MARCH-2025 - BUILDING HEALTHY BOUNDARIES

THE MAIN THEME: ACHIEVING PERSONAL GROWTH 

TITLE: BUILDING HEALTHY BOUNDARIES

The quote for today’s devotional is: "Daring to set boundaries is about having the courage to love ourselves, even when we risk disappointing others." 

— Brené Brown

Devotional 

Elizabeth struggled with saying no. Whether it was staying up late to help a friend with homework, letting people borrow her things without returning them, or allowing friends to pressure her into things she wasn’t comfortable with. She didn’t want to disappoint anyone, so she always said yes.

But after months of feeling exhausted, used, and disrespected, Elizabeth started realizing something: saying yes to everyone else meant saying no to herself. She had no time for her own needs, her schoolwork was suffering, and it felt like people only liked her for what she could do for them.

One night, she listened to a podcast and heard the above quote by Renee Brown. It hit her that she needed to protect herself and not just please others. She started setting boundaries, learning to say no when she needed to, and surrounding herself with friends who respected her limits.

Even Jesus had boundaries. He spoke up when others tried to manipulate Him (Matthew 16:23), and not everyone was in His inner circle (Mark 5:37)

Setting boundaries means:

Saying no to things that harm your peace, values, and well-being; protecting your time and energy; surrounding yourself with people who respect your limits and understanding that you are not responsible for making everyone happy.

Here are a few reflective questions

1.What time did I struggle to set a boundary, and how did it make me feel?

2.What are some areas in my life where I need stronger boundaries?

3.What is one step I can take today to protect my heart and peace?

Let us Pray:

Lord, help me to build healthy boundaries that honor You and protect my heart. Give me the wisdom to know when to say NO in Jesus name, Amen 

Please say these words of affirmation after me. Say them, mean them, own them and live them:

  1. I have the right to set boundaries that honor God and protect my peace.
  2. Saying no is not selfish—it is wise and necessary.
  3. I am worthy of relationships that respect my limits.

Have a beautiful day and see you tomorrow.

27-FEBRUARY-2025 - WHAT IS PURPOSE

THE MAIN THEME: THE PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE 

TITLE: WHAT IS PURPOSE?

The bible verse for today’s devotional is: Proverbs 20:5 (NIV)

"The purposes of a person’s heart are deep waters,  but one who has insight draws them out." 

Devotional:
Purpose is the divine reason for your existence, a heavenly assignment uniquely crafted for you. Throughout history, God has used ordinary people to fulfill extraordinary purposes. Think about Joseph - Sold into slavery by his brothers, falsely accused, and imprisoned, it seemed his life was derailed. Yet, every experience was part of God’s grand design. Joseph himself acknowledged this when he said to his brothers, “You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives” (Genesis 50:20).

Joseph’s journey teaches us that purpose often unfolds in unexpected ways. Though the path may seem unclear, God’s purpose for your life remains steadfast. Every trial, skill, and opportunity you encounter is part of His plan to mold you into the person He created you to be.

Here are a few reflective questions:

  1. How can the challenges you’ve faced shape your understanding of purpose?
  2. Are you willing to trust God even when His plans are unclear?
  3. Who might benefit from you walking boldly in your purpose?

Let Us Pray:
Lord, help me to see the beauty of Your purpose in my life. Even when the road seems uncertain, may I trust in Your plan and remain steadfast. Use me as a vessel to fulfill Your will. Amen.

Please say these words of affirmation. Say them, mean them, own them and live them:

  • I am created for a purpose. 
  • Every experience in my life is part of God’s divine design.
  • I will walk confidently in God’s plans knowing His plans for me are good.

Do have a fulfilling day. Take good care of yourself and see you tomorrow!

26-FEBRUARY-2025 - LIVING AND LEAVING A LEGACY THAT ENDURES

MAIN THEME; THE PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE 

TITLE: LIVING AND LEAVING A LEGACY THAT ENDURES

The quote for today’s devotional is:
"The choices you make today determine the stories you’ll tell tomorrow." 

– Unknown

Devotional

As young people, the idea of leaving a legacy might seem distant—something to think about "later in life." But the truth is: your legacy doesn’t start someday; it starts today.

The way you live now shapes not only your future but also the lives of those around you. Every choice you make, every relationship you build, every action you take creates a ripple effect. You have the power to inspire others, set a standard for kindness, and contribute to a world that is better because you’re in it.

Your legacy isn’t about waiting for a perfect moment or achieving big milestones. It’s about how you show up each day—how you treat others, how you chase your dreams, and how you stay true to the values that matter most to you.

The world needs your light now. You are never too young to make a difference or to start creating a legacy of positivity, faith, and love.

Here are a few reflective questions

  • What kind of person do you want to be remembered as?
  • How can the choices you make today shape your future?
  • What small, consistent actions can you take now to inspire others?

Let Us Pray

Heavenly Father,
Thank You for the gift of youth, energy, and opportunity. Help us to live with purpose, even in our young years. Teach us to use our time wisely, to make choices that honor You, and to inspire others through our actions. May we leave a legacy of kindness, courage, and faith that glorifies You. Amen.

Please say these words of affirmation after me. Say them, mean them, own them, live them

  • I have the power to make a difference today.
  • My actions create a ripple effect of goodness and hope.
  • I am building a legacy of love, kindness, and purpose.

Do have an awesome day! Take care of yourself, and see you tomorrow!

25-FEBRUARY-2025 - HOW TO LIVE TO BEAUTIFY LIFE

THE MAIN THEME: THE PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE

 TITLE: HOW TO LIVE TO BEAUTIFY LIFE

 The quote for today’s devotional is:

“Learn to enjoy every minute of your life. Be happy now. Don’t wait for something outside of yourself to make you happy in the future. Think how really precious is the time you have to spend, whether it’s at work or with your family. Every minute should be enjoyed and savored.”
 ― Earl Nightingale

Devotional:

Fiona had always been focused on reaching her goals in life. She was an A student, making all the charts and pretty much had things going on for her in what she considered the main areas of life. But as she was preparing for graduation day, what she felt was not elation but a deep sadness as she realized her whole life (at least so far) she had focused so narrowly on goals and trophies, so much so that she really had not enjoyed much of the journey. All through the years of being in school, there had always been a goal to chase down- not necessarily because it was demanded of her, but these were things she wanted to do but it all felt empty today- graduation day. She had dreamed several times of how she would celebrate her graduation but never in a thousand years did she imagine that an empty sad feeling would be one of the things she would feel on this day.

Fiona in this story is hypothetical and can represent a lot of us in different areas of life. Sometimes we are so carried away with reaching our goals, whether those are academic or work-related goals, or caught up with ensuring our children stay ‘in line’ or whatever else, that we sometimes forget to slow down and just be happy that we get to do these daily chores or tasks that define how we spend each day. One day turns 20 years and we discover we had just existed but never truly lived.

The message today is - Chose to enjoy your journey through life everyday…don’t wait…chose to live fully today and every day; be mind-present and truly make your life beautiful, don’t just exist.

Here are a few reflective questions:

  1. What is one thing I can add to my daily or weekly routines that will make me laugh? What time will I do it each day/week?
  2. What is one thing I can add to my daily or weekly routines that helps me connect with my friends and family? What time will I do it each day/week?
  3. What is one thing I can do to ensure I remind myself to have fun for a few minutes a day or connect with family/friend(s) each day?

 Let us pray:

Dear God, help me live life fully, appreciating all the beauties you have surrounded me with in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Please say these words of affirmation. Say them, mean them, own them and live them:

  • God has given me all things to enjoy.
  • I will work towards my goals.
  • I will also enjoy the journey of my beautiful life.

You are beautiful, that’s why you deserve a beautiful day. I’ll see you tomorrow.

24-FEBRUARY-2025 - DEVELOPING A GROWTH MINDSET

THE MAIN THEME: PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE 

TITLE: DEVELOPING A GROWTH MINDSET  

The quote for today’s devotional is: "Be not afraid of growing slowly; be afraid only of standing still."

- Chinese Proverb  

Devotional 

Growth doesn’t always happen quickly, and that’s okay. The Chinese proverb reminds us that slow progress is still progress, but standing still—refusing to move forward—is what we should fear. Similarly, Proverbs 4:18 paints a picture of steady growth, comparing the journey of the righteous to the gradual brightening of the morning sun.  

In life, it’s tempting to feel discouraged when progress seems slow. But God values persistence and faithfulness, not speed. Each small step you take toward becoming the person He created you to be is significant. Trust the process, knowing that God is guiding your journey, no matter how long it takes.  

Practical Steps to Embrace Growth

Celebrate small victories as signs of progress; be patient with yourself; keep moving forward; trust God’s timing; and remember, your journey is unique; don’t measure your progress against others.  

Here are a few reflective questions :

  1. What is one area of your life where you feel like progress is slow? How can you trust God in that process?
  2. What small steps can you take today to move forward, even if they feel insignificant?

Let us pray

Heavenly Father, thank You for reminding me that growth takes time. Help me to trust Your process and to keep moving forward, even when progress feels slow. In Jesus’ name, Amen. 

Please say these words of affirmation after me. Say them, mean them, own them and live them.

  • "I am growing at my own pace, and that’s okay. 
  • Each step I take brings me closer to who God wants me to be."  

 

Keep growing, and I'll see you tomorrow.
