Day 33
Regardless of what’s going on in your life, you can always find hope and strength through God (the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit). Many of us, including me, were not brought up reading or understanding the Bible. It’s no wonder that there’s so much pain and fear in our world!
I’m forever grateful for God’s direct calling on my life, and can attest to the incredible transformations that have occurred since my eyes were opened and I began spending time with him. More than service or sacrifice, God most values relationship with each and every one of us, his beloved children. Like any good relationship, this takes time and effort on our part. Time spent in, and reflecting on, his holy written word.
It’s never too late, and there is nothing you have done that he cannot forgive. His love and salvation are a free gift, available to all who are willing to surrender to his grace.
A few of the scriptures that have lifted me up in times of sadness and fear are included in this post. I hope they bring encouragement to you and inspire you to grow in your relationship with your Father.
