Today’s start and devotion is a little different! What if becoming the best version of yourself has less to do with becoming… and more to do with discovering? What if it’s not about: Waking up at 4AM. Working out every day. Grinding harder. Sleeping less. Making more money. Building more. Doing more. What if the greatest version of you is discovered when you finally learn who you are in God? Because maybe the goal was never to DO enough to BECOME somebody. Maybe the goal is to BE who God created you to be — and PRODUCE from that place. Jesus said: “Abide in Me… and you will bear much fruit.” — John 15:4–5 Notice the order. Abide first.

DAY 4 — DEPEND ON GOD Scripture: “Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.” — Proverbs 3:5 KJV Devotional Walking with God means learning to depend on God. Many times we pray, but we’ve already decided what we’re going to do. We ask God for direction while still leaning on our own wisdom, strength, resources, and understanding. But relationship with God requires dependence. Jesus said, “without me ye can do nothing.” — John 15:5 Dependence says: “God, I don’t want to do this without You.” Before making the decision—ask Him. Before responding—seek Him. Before trying to figure everything out yourself—bring it to Him. The goal isn’t simply to ask God to bless what you’re doing. It’s learning to discover what He’s doing and follow Him. Reflection Where in my life am I relying more on myself than God? What would it look like to truly trust Him with that area?
