We Grow: A Journey of Drawing Closer to God

DAY 242 OF 365

Day 242 of 365

In 2 Corinthians 4, Paul describes the resilience of believers, who may be “hard pressed on every side, but not crushed.” This strength comes not from ourselves but from the Spirit within us, filling us with God’s light and courage in times of difficulty. In 2 Chronicles, we read of Asa’s reliance on God for victory over his enemies, a reminder that when we trust in God, we gain strength beyond our own capacity. The Holy Spirit sustains us through trials, guiding us and illuminating our path with the light of Christ.

This light within us is a testament to God’s power, shining brightly even in life’s darkest valleys. The Spirit fills us with hope, helping us to persevere and to shine as examples of His love and strength. Our struggles, met with His grace, become testimonies to others, showing them the peace and resilience that only God provides.

Today, invite the Holy Spirit to fill you with God’s light. Ask for the strength to endure with faith and the courage to be a light to others. May your life reflect the unbreakable hope and strength found in Christ, encouraging those around you to seek His presence.
