Weak Faith | July 14th

"Put your finger here, and see my hands; and put out your hand, and place it in my side. Do not disbelieve, but believe."

John 20:27

Thomas struggled to believe that Christ arose from the grave. His lack of faith did not inhibit Jesus from coming to Thomas. Jesus appeared and addressed his lack of faith. Jesus strengthened Thomas's faith by assuring him that He was truly alive.

Beloved, every believer will face a trial in their life when their faith weakens. We will be challenged in what we believe and if it is worth following Christ. In such moments, God will not abandon us or become impatient. The Holy Spirit strengthens the heart of God's people. Mercy is extended, and the Lord meets us amid our doubts.

Be not dismayed today. The Lord is with you, and if you are filled with doubts, He remains faithful. The Lord will see you through.

In Christ Alone.

Grace is Sufficient | July 11th

"My grace is sufficient for you,"

2 Corinthians 12:9

Will God's grace be sufficient for you today, beloved?

Have you been saved by grace alone? Did the grace of God remove your sins from you as far as the east is from the west? Though your sins wear as scarlet, are you now white as snow by grace? Are all of your sins lost in the depths of the sea of forgetfulness because of God's grace?

If the grace of God has made provision for our atonement, and we are continually secure in salvation through grace alone, by faith alone, in Christ alone. Then this same saving grace will be sufficient for all our needs for all our days until this grace brings us home.

The grace of God is sufficient for you now and always.

In Christ Alone.

God Leads the Way | July 9th

"Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him, and he will act."

Psalm 37:5

There are moments in life when we consider our next step. We look ahead and are aware that the present decision holds significance. We cannot fully know all that is before us, but we are desperate to go in the right direction.

Scripture calls us to cast our lives upon the Lord. When we look to the Lord's providence in our lives, we are surrendering to His will. In God's will, we obtain His promises, receive His provision, and are secure in His love.

Let us cast ourselves upon the Lord and trust that He will keep us. Trusting that the Lord will work all things for the good of our salvation and will lead us through life. The Lord will act, and His hand will go before us. Seek God's guidance in your life today.

In Christ Alone.
