When you feel isolated or like you don't fit in because of what you believe or how you choose to live your life, remember that this feels so different from everyone else because you belong to Jesus, and this world is not your home. Jesus knows the trials and sorrows we will face here on earth, but He says all of this so that we may have peace in Him. "...But take heart, because I have overcome the world."

We serve a good and faithful God, who is good on His promises. These things Jesus is promising to his disciples are not only true in their lives, but ours as well. He promises He is going to prepare a place for you. Ask Him for anything in His name, and He will do it. He will not abandon you. He leaves you with a gift of peace of mind and heart, that is a peace the world cannot give. He gives us the Holy Spirit as our Comforter, Encourager and Counselor. Let's meditate on these promises, today and every day.

Whew, this one was difficult to get through. But, as Pastor Craig Groeschel says, if you miss a day (or week ;) don't miss two. This is a beautiful chapter with a significant message that Jesus teaches us through the washing of his disciples' feet. I pray that after today's reading, we would have the desire to be more like Jesus and a heart that wants to serve others as Jesus did.

Today we read about 3 major events leading up to the Glorification of Jesus. The anointing of Jesus from Mary, Jesus’s triumphant entry into Jerusalem, and the prediction of his own death. After all of this, the disbelief/fear of openly believing in Jesus from the people and pharisees leads us to the question to reflect on in our daily lives: Do you love human praise more than the praise from God?

In today’s reading we’ll see the courage and supernatural power of Jesus and the remarkable faith of Mary, Martha, and Thomas who is nicknamed “the twin." They all believed in Jesus even when they didn't fully understand the bigger picture or have all of their questions answered. I believe each of us should strive and pray for an unshakeable faith like theirs.

God is our Good Shepherd, meaning he will never abandon us. No one can snatch us from him, and we as his sheep are able to hear and recognize his voice and follow Him. There will be false teachings, lies and tactics from the enemy that's purpose is to steal, kill and destroy the promises of God over our lives but our Good Shepherd is far more powerful, and cares about all of us.

Today we read about Jesus healing a blind man, who had been blind his whole life for the purpose of the power of God to be seen through him. His miraculous healing continues to come with split opinions on Jesus being a blasphemous sinner, a prophet and truly the Son of God. What's your opinion on the healing power of Jesus? Are you or someone you know walking in spiritual blindness from the fact that Jesus actually healed many people in his time on earth and still performs miracles to this day? I invite you to ask God to reveal this to you, that he is the same God today that makes the impossible, possible. If you have a mountain that needs moved, He is the one that can move it.

In this story, Jesus shows us how he felt about sin. How he dealt with sin in the story and is the same way he approaches us today when it comes to our sin, which is with love and grace. This doesn’t mean that he agrees with what we are doing, nor can he ignore it because of how costly and deadly it is to us, he loves us too much to not take it seriously. He says anyone who sins (which is all of us,) is a slave to it. He wants us to be freed, and through Him is the only way we can be. His character is just, and his law is perfect.

In John 7, we see yet again Jesus claiming He is sent by God to do the work of His Father who sent Him. Even in the face of adversary, we see Jesus speak boldly over these people that anyone who is thirsty, may come to Him. His heart is for people who need a savior, and when we believe in Him, His Spirit of living water will flow from our hearts and we will be forever saved. God doesn't want you to feel shame. Not about who you are or who He is.

If you're anything like me, you may sometimes let your fear be bigger than your faith, but if we stop and speak the truth of God over ourselves, even if it’s a small amount of faith, he always comes through. He is still the God that walked on water and fed 5,000. He is still the God of miracles. And that same God gives us eternal life through the blood of Jesus, who died for you. He loves you and He is for  you.
