I Only Know The Road Leads Home
He has come to join us in our suffering, indeed suffer in our place on the cross so that one day we can enter into a place where there is no suffering at all. He made the ultimate sacrifice so that we can someday witness the undoing and remaking of all that sin has tainted.
Are You Unsure? Jesus Offers Truth.
If we are meditating on and obsessing over, building our lives on and pinning our hopes to, any other truth than what He gives us, we have lost our way. We must repent of basing our lives on man’s truth, making up our own unbiblical truths, and neglecting the truth of the Scriptures.
Are You Vulnerable? Jesus Offers Care.
Today, you will hear the convincing lies of the enemy inviting you to go astray and you will hear the sweet voice of Jesus calling you to follow Him in faith. Who will you believe knows best, offers what is best and is after your best? The one who wants only to steal and kill and destroy? Or the One who loves you enough to lay down His life for you?
Are You Needy? Jesus Offers Provision.
God means for us not to worry about our future because we have the promise of His provision for us in Jesus. Take heart today, take your cares to Him in prayer, and take a look around for God at work. You need help. You will have the help you need. Because He is faithful, and He is for you.
Imperfect People Loving Imperfect People
For who better to love imperfect people than those who were at their own worst when Jesus loved them anyway? We will extend love to others when we remember how wonderfully it has been extended to us.
Every Person In Your Life
Every meeting, every conversation, every interaction, every passing, and every encounter is a wonderful occasion to bless and brighten someone else’s life to the glory of God. Those intersections where your life meets someone else’s life hold a beautiful, God-given opportunity and responsibility to love like Jesus.
Are You Mistreated? Jesus Offers Friendship.
What a friend we have in Jesus! He loved us most by giving His life for us, He loves us first by initiating friendship with us, He loves us best every single day, and He will love us longest throughout an eternity of joy and pleasure in His presence.
Are You Weary? Jesus Offers Rest.
Things will work out as they should. Because there is a wise, powerful, loving Savior who reigns over all for the good of those who trust in Him. Things are out of our control. But they are never out of His.
Are You Unfulfilled? Jesus Offers Purpose.
Today, be mindful of the beautiful calling upon your life: You were made to be an image-bearer. A difference-maker. A Jesus-treasurer. A God-glorifier. A good works doer. That is why you are here … so, go shine your light!
Are You Weak? Jesus Offers Power.
He does not promise us a plan to escape our hardships; He promises a power to endure them. A life of power is one that is stripped of self-reliance and replaced with Savior-reliance. A life of power is one in which we acknowledge our need for His help, ask for His help, anticipate His help, and accept His help in whatever way He chooses to send it.
