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

Devotional Reading - December 16, 2025

12/16/25 Good morning, Friends,  Acts 4:12 - [12] And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved. BOLDNESS! In the chapter before this, Peter heals a man who had been disabled his whole life. The crowd is amazed. Everyone’s staring at Peter and John like they’re the heroes. But Peter shuts all that down immediately. He tells them straight up: “This wasn’t us. This was God working through Jesus Christ.” Peter refuses the spotlight and points all the credit where it belongs. That’s the same bold truth behind this verse, Jesus Christ alone saves. No exceptions. No substitutes. No backup plans. Peter is standing in front of religious leaders who believed they were right with God because of rules, traditions, and family history. And Peter doesn’t sugarcoat it. He tells them clearly: none of that saves you. Not religion. Not good behavior. Not being sincere. Not choosing another spiritual lane. Only J...

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...

Daily Devotional - September 10, 2025

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 πŸ“ˆ, 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 πŸ₯Š 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 πŸ’― 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...
