Overcome Evil with Good
September 20, 2026
Colossians 2:13-15 closes the week at the cross, where God found us dead in sin, canceled the record against us, and nailed it to the wood—not to punish us, but to free us. Like a father crouching among the snakes saying “jump on my back,” God took the strike meant for us. Every memory from this week points to this one memorial. If we remember the cross, the only response is to stop navigating the darkness alone and hold on.

What Is That in Your Hand?
September 20, 2026
Exodus 4:2-5 teaches us that God can use what is already in our hands, even when it seems ordinary or unimpressive, for His greater purposes. Instead of focusing on what we lack, we can open our hands, surrender what we have to God, and trust Him to use it in ways we never could on our own.

Words That Stay
September 20, 2026
John 10:27 ties the whole week together: the sheep listen to the shepherd's voice, and the clearest place to hear that voice is the Bible—every time you open it, the good shepherd is speaking. The more you read, the more you know the One who already knows you completely, and it turns into a real friendship. And it never stops at your head; his voice leads your feet, following him through school, home, everywhere. The words you read this week don't disappear—they stay tucked in your heart, speaking long after you close the book.

Reading With A Different Lens
Romans 12:2 reminds us to be transformed by renewing our minds through Scripture. Instead of seeing the world through the lens of culture, we are called to view life through God's Word, which exposes the flaws of worldly thinking and guides us to live in alignment with God's truth. Let Scripture reshape your perspective and priorities today.

Keep Going
1 Corinthians 15:58 encourages us to stand firm and continue in our work for the Lord, reminding us that no act of love or service is ever in vain. Like Van Gogh, whose work was unrecognized in his lifetime, we may not always see the immediate impact of our efforts, but God is using them in ways we cannot yet see. Trust in His faithfulness and keep going.

He Is So Close
Acts 17:28 and Matthew 28:20 remind us that God is as close to us as our very breath, constantly present and sustaining us. The name of God, YHWH, echoes in every breath we take, symbolizing His intimate nearness and reminding us that He is always with us, guiding and comforting us in every moment of life.

Nehemiah’s success in rebuilding Jerusalem’s walls was rooted in months of prayerful preparation, reminding us that true strength and clarity come from waiting on God and seeking His guidance.

If I Won The Lottery
Psalm 27:4 and Matthew 6:33 remind us that true fulfillment comes not from material wealth or worldly success, but from seeking God's presence above all else. Like David, we find our greatest satisfaction in drawing close to God, trusting that when we prioritize Him, everything else falls into place.

Ends Aren’t Justified
Romans 12:2 reminds us that true transformation comes by aligning our minds with God's will, rather than conforming to worldly pressures. This calls us to maintain integrity, even when tempted to take shortcuts, trusting that following Jesus' way—honoring Him in every step—leads to a better outcome in the long run.
