Scripture — Jeremiah 29:11 (KJV) “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.” "God’s Thoughts Toward You" Context Jeremiah spoke these words to God’s people while they were living in Babylonian exile—far from home, uncertain about their future, and tempted to believe God had forgotten them. Yet God reminded them that His purpose was still active. He called them to trust Him, keep living faithfully, and wait with hope for the future He had prepared. Devotional Thought Before you face today, remember this: God is already thinking about you. Your circumstances may feel delayed, confusing, or uncertain, but they do not cancel God’s intention of peace, hope, and a meaningful future for your life. Jeremiah 29:11 was not spoken to people enjoying an easy season; it was spoken to people in exile. That means God’s promise is especially powerful when life feels interrupted. He is not merely watching from a distance—He is working with wisdom, mercy, and purpose, even in seasons you do not fully understand. Today, release the fear that God has overlooked you. Let His thoughts of peace steady your heart, guide your decisions, and give you courage to keep moving forward. Key Take-aways God knows you personally and thinks about you with intentional care. His plans are rooted in peace, not harm, confusion, or destruction. An “expected end” means God has a future and hope prepared for you. Difficult seasons do not mean God has abandoned His purpose. Trusting God today positions you to recognize His guidance tomorrow. Prayer Heavenly Father, thank You that Your thoughts toward me are thoughts of peace, hope, and a good future. When I feel uncertain, remind me that You are still working. Calm every anxious thought, direct my steps today, and help me trust Your timing. I surrender my plans, fears, and expectations to You. Lead me into the expected end You have prepared, in Jesus’ name. Amen. © 2026 Douglas R. Bramwell — All Rights Reserved.
