Faithfulness

May 13th – Ephesians 5:8

Ephesians 5:8

With so many opinions in the world, and just as many people ready to give them, no wonder people are confused as to which way to turn. And as the days grow closer to the return of our Savior, Paul calls us, as followers of Jesus, to be children of light. Walking in the ways of righteousness and truth. Living lives that are a reflection of the divine light that shines within us, illuminating the darkness that surrounds us. In a world often shrouded in despair and uncertainty, may we stand as beacons of hope and love, guiding others towards the radiant truth of Christ. Let our actions speak louder than words, demonstrating the transformative power of God’s grace in our lives. With hearts ablaze with the fire of His love, let us live with integrity and purity, beaming brightly in a world that desperately needs the light of Christ. As we eagerly await the return of His Son, may our lives serve as a testimony to His goodness and faithfulness, drawing others into the embrace of His eternal love.

May 11th – Hebrews 10:23

Hebrews 10:23

In the midst of a world turned upside down, Hebrews 10:23 speaks to the turmoil we face. As predicted in the last days, the lines between good and evil have not only been blurred, but flipped upside down. People no longer have trust in their leaders, in their news sources, and even each other. For anger, division, and chaos rule the day. And as the presidential election grows closer, the vitriol grows louder, pushing society further into uncertainty. Yet in these turbulent times, we can cling unswervingly to the hope found in Jesus. His promises stand firm as a beacon of light in the darkness. Though everything may seem out of control, we can anchor our souls in His unchanging truth. With unwavering faith let us stand firm, knowing that His faithfulness endures forever. And as we await His return, let us not be shaken or swayed by the storms around us. Instead, let us remain steadfast. For our redemption draws near, and in Christ, we find our ultimate hope and security.

Isaiah 35:1-2

In the dry, desolate expanse of the desert, life seems to wither away, leaving behind a barren landscape. But with the arrival of spring, a miraculous transformation takes place. And the once dreary scenery, becomes vibrant with blooming wildflowers of pink, purple, and yellow. Isaiah paints a vivid picture of the transformation that occurs when God’s restoration unfolds. Like the desert bursting forth with life and splendor, so too will our hearts burst forth with joy when we witness the fullness of God’s restoration. A restoration rooted in His mercy, and one that will take us from brokenness to wholeness, darkness to light. And the joy we experience from God’s promises fulfilled, will be greater than anything we’ve ever known. So as we anticipate this glorious renewal, let us prepare our hearts to receive it with open arms, trusting in God’s unfailing love and faithfulness. And when the day of restoration comes, may our happiness be uncontainable. Like streams bursting forth in the desert, flooding the parched land with life-giving water.

Psalm 96:12-13

Martin Luther once said, “Beautiful music is the art of the prophets that can calm the agitations of the soul; it is one of the most magnificent and delightful presents God has given us.” Nature sings of God’s glory and majesty, from the tallest mountains to the depths of the seas, filling our hearts with awe and wonder. With each sunrise and sunset, with every rustle of the leaves and chirp of the birds, creation proclaims the greatness of our Creator. Let us join creation’s chorus, lifting our voices in harmony with the wind, the waves, and the whispering trees. For He who formed the heavens and the earth deserves all honor and praise. As the rivers flow and the flowers bloom, let us be reminded of God’s faithfulness and love that never fades. With hearts overflowing with gratitude, let us declare His wonders to the nations, sharing the gladness of His salvation. For in God’s presence, there is fullness of joy, and in His light, we find true peace. So let us make music, rejoice, and be glad, for the Lord reigns over all the earth, now and forevermore.

Psalm 90:12

As the year draws to a close, Solomon calls us to reflect on the past year. To take some time to look back at the highs, lows, good times and bad.

Because through the ebb and flow of life, His unwavering faithfulness is always there as a comforting constant.
