Max Lucado Devotional 9 July 2024 Message: A Reminder for Us All
READ TODAY’S DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR 9TH JULY 2024 BY MAX LUCADO
We ask God, “Where are you taking me? Where is the path?” And he doesn’t tell us. Oh, he may give us a hint or two, but that’s all. If he did, would we understand? Would we comprehend our location? No, we are unacquainted with this jungle. So rather than give us an answer, Jesus gives us a far greater gift – he gives us himself.
Does he remove the jungle? No, the vegetation is still thick. Does he purge the predators? No, danger still lurks. Jesus doesn’t give hope by changing the jungle; he restores our hope by giving us himself. And he has promised to stay until the very end. “I am with you always, to the very end of the age” (Matthew 28:20).
We need that reminder. We all need that reminder, for all of us need hope.
