Break Free and Run to Christ

Opening Verse

“The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.” – Proverbs 18:10

Introduction

Life’s journey can often take us into rough waters where our deepest fears and doubts try to drown our peace and identity. Facing these giants can be daunting, but there is a pathway that leads to safety and truth—it starts at the feet of Jesus Christ.

Devotional Story

Imagine Anna, a woman who faced severe anxiety and uncertainty as she transitioned to becoming a single mother. The weight of her new reality seemed unbearable. Yet, in her darkest moments, she remembered the simpler, joyful times of her childhood faith. This memory sparked a desire to reconnect with that faith, leading her to seek comfort and guidance through prayer and scripture.

What This Means

Anna’s story is a call to action for all of us. When the shadows of fear grow long and our hearts feel overwhelmed, it’s a signal to not just stand still but to run—run towards Christ. He is our refuge, our strong tower where safety and peace are found.

Think About This

Consider what fears are holding you back today. Are you ready to let them go and trust Christ to lead you into His light? He is waiting to turn your fears into freedom.

Prayer

Lord Jesus, we come to You in our weakness and fear. We ask You to be our strength, our guide, and our protector. As we run towards You, hold us close, transform our fears, and let Your peace fill our hearts. Amen.

Closing Verse

“Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” – Matthew 11:28
