Ephesians 5:15-17 (NLT)
So be careful how you live. Don’t live like fools, but like those who are wise. Make the most of every opportunity in these evil days. Don’t act thoughtlessly, but understand what the Lord wants you to do.

God’s Word today is alerting you to the reality that you may be having a bad time because these are evil days. But it is also a word of hope because difficult and evil times are also times of great opportunity.
How can you seize it? Do not act like many who are spouting foolish words and doing foolish things triggered by negative thoughts. Rather, ask God to fill your mind with wisdom to understand these times so that you can transform the crisis into an opportunity for doing good.
You may want to pray something like this: Father God, thank You for this hope-filled word for such an evil time as this. I need and I ask for Your wisdom to see the opportunities in the midst the crises that surround me so that I can show off Your goodness, grace and power. Show me Your way, so that this season becomes a season of blessing for me and those around me. In the name of Jesus, Amen!
Have a blessed day!
