TODAY’S READING
Psalm 34:1-10
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
I am redeemed by God’s grace.
By grace you have been saved through faith, and this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God — not the result of works, so that no one may boast. – Ephesians 2:8-9 (NRSVUE)
From a young age, I loved to go to church. I was very active in youth ministry, and my grandfather, who was the pastor, regularly involved me in worship. I enjoyed my time at church, but my faith was not strong.
After my grandfather’s death, I stopped going to church and got caught up in worldly distractions. I began a marketing job and became wrapped up in secular society. Some of my friends were members of the local mafia. My life was a total wreck.
After some time, my mother urged me to turn to Christ. But I thought to myself, I am such a sinner! How can God love me? But 2 Corinthians 12:9 reassured me that God’s “grace is sufficient” and that God loves me. I have been saved — not because of my work and deeds but because of God’s grace. So I turned to God and began trying to use my life for the glory of God. Since that time, whenever I have felt weak or depressed, God has showered abundant grace upon me.
TODAY’S PRAYER
