Good morning 🌞, Friends,

John 20:29 LSB
[29] Jesus *said to him, “Because you have seen Me, have you believed? Blessed are those who did not see, and yet believed.”

We all have moments when we just want God to show us a sign, like something we can touch, see, or hear. Thomas, one of Jesus' own disciples, felt the same way. When he got word that the other followers had seen the risen Jesus, Thomas couldn’t believe it. Not until he touched the nail marks in Jesus’ hands.

But when Jesus finally pulled up on Thomas and offered that proof, He also spoke a powerful truth for us all: “Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”

Yo, that's US!!!!

We weren’t there to see Jesus walk on water, calm the storm, or rise from the dead. But we believe anyway. And Jesus calls us blessed for that. Why? Because trusting in Christ without seeing Him face-to-face takes faith. And faith is powerful.

Faith pleases God and carries us through when life throws a curve ball and things don't make sense. Faith helps us trust God’s goodness when we don’t understand the pain we’re in. Faith reminds us that Jesus is alive, present, and working—even when we can’t see Him with our eyes.

Jesus honors our faith. Your trust in Him, even in the hard moments, is not unnoticed. It brings blessing, peace, and strength that the world can’t offer.

Yo, just take a moment and reflect on a time when God showed up in your life—even if it wasn’t the way you expected. Let that memory strengthen your faith for today.

Get ya faith up!!!! 

Maranatha (The Lord is coming)  
Soli Deo Gloria (Glory to God Alone)

- Grace & Peace

    Amen , yes sometimes i feel overwhelmed and need something tangible to reach and grab. But God let’s me know that he is closer than a brother or sister. That he knows my every needs and thoughts. I don’t need to touch him because i can feel him.

Daily Devotional - August 21, 2025

8/21/25 Good morning, Friends,  1 Thessalonians 4:11 -11 and to make it your ambition to lead a quiet 🤫 life and attend to your own business and work with your hands, just as we commanded you, Everybody these days wants to shine. Social media has people chasing likes, clout, and attention, trying to be seen instead of just being faithful. But the Word of God cuts through all that noise: “Lead a quiet life. Mind your business. Work with your hands.” That’s not flashy. That won’t go viral. But that’s the grind God respects. See, real strength isn’t in being loud, it’s in being steady. Paul’s saying, stop being thirsty for the spotlight, stop running your mouth in other people’s affairs, and stop leaning on folks when you could be putting in your own work. Truth is, mooching off others while you got the ability to grind is lazy, and laziness is sin. God gave you gifts, skills, and breath in your lungs so use them. Don’t be that person always asking but never giving, always watching b...

9/10/25 Good morning, Friends, Psalm 69:1 LSB [1] Save me, O God, For the waters have threatened my life. Have you ever felt like life was drowning you? Like problems kept piling up 📈, bills, stress, health, relationships, and no matter how hard you tried, you just couldn’t keep your head above water? That’s exactly how David felt when he wrote ✍🏾 this verse. He wasn’t talking about actual water 🌊, he was describing the feeling of being overwhelmed and sinking fast. Instead of trying to fight 🥊 through it on his own, David cried out to God: “Save me, O God.” That’s the turning point. When we reach the end of ourselves, God is still strong enough to lift us up. Let's keep it 💯 with God. You don’t have to fake it with Him. If you’re struggling, tell Him straight up. He can handle your honest prayers. Depend on Him!! You don’t have to do life alone or in your own strength. God is able to rescue, comfort, and steady you when you feel like you’re going under. If you fee...

  8/18/25 Good morning, Friends,  Matthew 3:1-2 -[1]Now in those days John the Baptist came, preaching in the wilderness of Judea, saying, [2]“Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” John the Baptist didn’t show up in a three-piece suit with politically correct words. He came rough, raw, and real, and his message was simple: Repent. Not, “say you’re sorry.” Not, “promise to do better.” Repent. Here’s the difference: asking forgiveness is like telling God, “My bad, I messed up.” Repentance goes deeper—it’s a turning of the heart, mind, and direction. It’s when the Spirit of God flips the script in your soul, and you walk a whole new way. Forgiveness is like the judge stamping your record “cleared.” Repentance is like walking out of court and actually living different! It's proof that God’s the one changing you on the inside. Think of it like this: If I keep apologizing for stealing, but I’m still sliding wallets out of pockets tomorrow, nothing’s really changed. Repentan...
