Devotionals - Five minutes at the pump

Fuel-stop devotionals.

Written to be read in the time it takes to fill two tanks. A new one every day, drawn from a year's worth of readings — scripture, a thought to chew on, and a prayer.

The Lord Is NearPhilippians 4:5
No. 335
The Lord is near.Philippians 4:5

Three words dropped into the middle of instructions about gentleness and anxiety. As if Paul pauses to remind you: before you worry, before you panic, before you spiral — the Lord is near. His nearness is the foundation for everything else.

Reflect

Does the nearness of God affect how you handle stress today? How would it change your posture if you kept this truth front of mind?

Prayer

Lord, You are near. Right here, right now. Let that reality settle my anxiety and shape my gentleness. Amen.
