📖 “For in Him we live and move and exist.”

— Acts 17:28 (NIV)

🟡 What does this mean?

This verse reminds us that God is the one who gives us life and sustains us every day.

Every step we take, every breath, and every moment we live is thanks to Him.

Without God, we would have no strength, purpose, or direction.

He is our creator, our sustenance, and our reason for living.

🧠 Let's think for a moment

Have you ever thought that everything you can do — run, play, learn, laugh — is because God allows it?

Each new day is a gift God gives us to live with love and gratitude.

When we understand that everything comes from Him, we learn to depend on His love and care.

🙌 What can we do today?

Thank God for the life and strength He gives us

Use our time to do good things

Remember that we are not alone: God is always with us

Live in a way that shows we love God

💬 Phrase to remember

👉 My life is in God and everything I am depends on Him.

🙏 Final prayer

Lord, thank You because in You I live, move, and exist. Help me remember that everything I have and am comes from You. Teach me to live with gratitude and to use You as my guide every day. I want to honor You with my life. Amen. 🙏
