Introduction
Today’s reading provides us with a listing of people of great faith and the actions and risks they took in response to their faith. The account begins with Abel and continues to Joseph. We learn that faith is the way to please God.
Today’s Scripture: Hebrews 11:1
To have faith is to be sure of the things we hope for, to be certain of the things we cannot see.
Today’s Reading
Hebrews 11:1-22
Reflect
In what ways does faith provide you with a sure hope? Among all the people mentioned in today’s reading, are there any who are unfamiliar to you? Perhaps today’s reading will encourage you to find and read their stories in the Bible. Are there any who are models of faith for you?
Pray
Holy God, thank you for all your faithful servants. Thank you for mentors and teachers you have placed in my life. May I continue to grow in faith, trusting in your promises. Amen.
Prayer Concern
Those who mentor others in faith
