Amazing GraceSample

O soul are you weary and troubled

No light in the darkness you see

Find light when you look at the Saviour

And a life more abundant and free

Turn your eyes upon Jesus

Look full in His wonderful face

And the things of earth will grow strangely dim

As we embrace this amazing grace and delve deeper into our relationship with Jesus, we begin to understand that His love for us is transformative. Christ is our Good Shepherd, guiding us toward a new way of living.

Saint Augustine referred to Jesus as the divine "door to life." In a profound paradox, Jesus enters through that very door to lead us. He draws close enough for us to hear Him calling our names, leading us by going before us and paving the way. To live this"abundant life," we must intentionally turn our focus—our thoughts and hearts—toward Jesus. As Matthew 6:33instructs, we are to seek first the Kingdom of God.

Daily, we need to remind ourselves to look upon Jesus—our Savior, King, and Shepherd. When we do, the busyness of life will fall into its proper place.

His word shall not fail you He promised

You can trust Him and all will be well

Then go to a world that is dying

His perfect salvation to tell

The powerful truth of our lives is that God has equipped us with His Word. This Word is alive and active, providing guidance and light in every situation. We are never without help, direction, or hope. The good news is that Jesus is Lord and has come to redeem humanity.

Take a quiet moment today to focus your heart and mind on Jesus. Reflect on the profound work of the cross—the sacrifice He made and the redemption He offers. As you meditate on His love and grace, consider any situation in your life that might need His healing touch or redemption. Is there an area where you feel broken, lost, or in need of transformation? Bring that situation before God in prayer, declaring the truth of scripture over it.
