Do you remember the last time you laughed? Do you remember the last time you laughed from sheer joy?

Many of us don’t. The weight of life presses down on us. It weakens us.

Proverbs 31:25 says this of a godly woman: “She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.”

Did you know that God means for you to be strong? He wants you to have dignity. You are a child of the King. You are a woman of faith. You are a man who seeks Him.

That beautiful proverb reminds us that it is God Himself who dresses us each day with the respect He has for us as His creation. You can meet today with boldness in who you are, not shaking with fear or worry.

Today, as you head to work, take as your own promise that the all-powerful, true God made you to succeed and live life to its fullest. When the enemy tells you otherwise, laugh in his face.

Let’s pray.

Lord, we are better than what the enemy tells us we are. Thank you for clothing us in strength and confidence each day. Amen.
