Lord, how easily I get shaken. Criticism, challenges, changes and losses-all these things rattle me. Help me to live in the "kingdom that cannot be shaken" (Hebrews 12:28). Teach me how to build my life every day on Your Word and Your love, which will endure when all other things pass away.
Lord, I confess that I make an idol out of people's approval. Let me be so satisfied with Your love that I no longer respond to people out of fear of displeasing them but only in love, seeking what is best for them. Remove my idols of approval-which can never give me the approval I need.
Father, Your Son Jesus Christ gives me the meaning, value, and security I look for in other things. I ask that you help me to rejoice in Him more fully than I do. Break my schemes of earthly joy so I may find my all in Thee. Amen.
