Great Expectation

When Jesus rose from the dead, he destroyed the grip that sin and death held over our souls. In Christ, we are free from the power of sin’s control. Paul clearly states in Romans that when we are born again into the family of God through faith in Jesus, the Messiah, we are free to live without fear, condemnation, or shame.

Are you living in the freedom that Christ has offered you? Do you have great expectations for what lies ahead? Though you will suffer through trials in this life, and your hope will be tested, there is one who never changes. Look to Jesus today. Spend time in his presence. Meditate on his love and kindness for you. Remember the words that he spoke to his followers. When you feel overwhelmed by injustice and evil in this world, look to the King of kings. He will rule and reign forever in his mercy. There is a better day coming, no matter what yesterday looked like. Set your eyes on the one who reigns above the chaos, and let your heart find hope in his faithfulness.

Lord Jesus, I look to you today for help, hope, and courage. Thank you for your mercy that holds me close in love and sets me free in joy.
