An Open Door, Even With Little Strength
HaiWOWMinistry • October 31

“I know your deeds. See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut. I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name.” — Revelation 3:8 (NIV)

Sometimes we hear one part of a scripture, and then the rest reaches a place in our hearts we didn’t realize needed encouragement.

The open door first captured my attention. Then I read these words: “I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept my word.”

Jesus spoke these words to the church in Philadelphia, recognizing their faithfulness even with limited strength. Today, I find such comfort in that recognition. He sees our efforts. He knows the tears behind our perseverance and the love behind our service.

In this season of rebuilding my life, I am learning to trust Him more deeply. I am asking for patience, wisdom, grace, and a heart willing to receive His correction. I am still growing, and I am grateful that He meets me here.

Recently, a door opened for Let’s Be Friends Community to gather at the Rome Community Center for Veterans Day and Christmas. Through the kindness of others, we have a welcoming place to love and honor our veterans. I receive that provision with a humbled, grateful heart.

My Camino taught me to keep walking with God. That walk continues here, in everyday life—through uncertainty, healing, service, and unexpected kindness.

Whatever strength we have today, we can bring it to Him. We can remain faithful, seek His guidance, and take the next step.

Dear Lord, You see my heart and know my strength. Thank You for Your love and the doors You open. Search my heart and make it pure. Teach me to lead with patience, serve with compassion, and receive Your guidance with humility. Help me remain faithful to Your Word and honor Jesus in all I do. I am Yours, and I am grateful to walk with You. In Jesus’ name, amen.

🍂 October 30 | Grace for the Next Step
HaiWOWMinistry

“For the LORD gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding.”— Proverbs 2:6 (NIV)

Some days, our minds are full of things to finish, decisions to make, and questions we cannot yet answer. We can pause and ask God for wisdom right where we are.

His guidance may come through Scripture, wise counsel, or a quiet moment that helps us recognize what needs our attention today. We don’t have to see the whole path to take the next faithful step.

Today, let’s give our attention to what God has placed before us, make room for rest, and trust Him with what is still unfolding.

🙏 Prayer: Father, quiet the noise in our minds and give us wisdom for today. Help us recognize what matters, do our part with care, and release what is beyond our control. Thank You for walking with us into each new season. In Jesus’ name, amen.

🍂 October 29th — A Quiet Heart in a Busy Season
“But seek his kingdom, and these things will be given to you as well.” — Luke 12:31 NIV

Sometimes our hearts trust God, yet our minds keep running through the details—what needs finishing, what needs preparing, and what we might have forgotten.

In Luke 12, Jesus reminds us to notice the ravens and the flowers. Our Father cares for His creation, and He cares deeply for us. We can bring Him every need, including the small details that occupy so much room in our thoughts.

We can plan, prepare, and serve faithfully while leaving room to rest. Every unfinished task does not need an answer this morning. We can ask God for wisdom, give our attention to what is before us, and trust Him with what comes next.

When our thoughts begin circling, let us pause and return to His presence. The Father who knows our needs will hear us there.

Today, I will take one faithful step at a time, trusting God with the unfolding of the day.

🙏 Prayer: Father, thank You for knowing what fills our minds. Help us recognize what needs our attention today and release what we cannot settle yet. Guide our work, quiet our thoughts, and keep our hearts close to You. In Jesus’ name, amen.
