As long as you don’t quit there’s always hope!
Admit mistakes from yesterday, but embrace opportunity today
Proverbs 27:1 NIV
Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring forth.
James 4:14 NLT
How do you know what your life will be like tomorrow? Your life is like the morning fog—it’s here a little while, then it’s gone.
Stop trying to control, start building influence
Proverbs 29:15 NIV
A rod and a reprimand impart wisdom, but a child left undisciplined disgraces its mother.
Proverbs 4:1-4 NIV
Listen, my sons, to a father’s instruction; pay attention and gain understanding. I give you sound learning, so do not forsake my teaching. For I too was a son to my father, still tender, and cherished by my mother. Then he taught me, and he said to me, Take hold of my words with all your heart; keep my commands, and you will live.
Commit them to God and pray for them always
Job 1:4-5 NLT
Job’s sons would take turns preparing feasts in their homes, and they would also invite their three sisters to celebrate with them. When these celebrations ended—sometimes after several days—Job would purify his children. He would get up early in the morning and offer a burnt offering for each of them. For Job said to himself, “Perhaps my children have sinned and have cursed God in their hearts.” This was Job’s regular practice.
James 5:16 NIV
Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.
