We’ve all done it—scanning our circumstances like a spiritual weather report. Checking our job, our health, and our bank account to figure out, “Does God still love me? Is He blessing me or holding back?”

But comfort doesn’t come from your circumstances. It comes from Christ in you.

You don’t need to beg for God’s love. You don’t have to earn His forgiveness. And you sure don’t need to perform to be comforted. Your union with Jesus is full and final—no interruptions, no conditions.

So, are you letting Him remind you? Convince you? Comfort you? If you’re still searching outside for what’s already inside, this message is for you!
