Do Not Weep

“And when the Lord saw her, He had compassion on her and said to her, ‘Do not weep.’” Luke 7:13 (ESV)

The woman from the town of Nain in this passage was a widow who had also lost her only son. In her culture, men were the breadwinners, and in her case, both providers were gone. Her present and future hope were shattered, and she was left in complete uncertainty.

As she was carrying her son’s lifeless body, surrounded by only a few people, no one explained her situation to Jesus. Yet Jesus saw her. He found her, and He was immediately moved with compassion. With deep tenderness, He spoke words of great comfort: “Do not weep.”

Jesus stopped, touched the bier carrying her son’s body, raised him back to life, and handed him to his mother. He did not only raise her son from the dead—He also raised the standard of her hope. What once looked like a faded and broken future suddenly became bright and full of promise. Her sorrow was turned into joy in an instant.

That is the power of the touch of Jesus Christ.

If you are walking beside a dead dream, a destroyed future, or a hopeless season, the Word of God encourages you to come into His presence. One look from Him, one touch from Him, can turn your life upside down—for good.

God knows your silent, wordless cries and says to you today, “Do not weep.”

He needs no explanation of your pain; He is already with you on the journey. He is fully God and fully human—He empathizes with your suffering and, at the same time, has the power to miraculously bring you out of it. He is not numb to your tears. His ear is not closed, and His hand is not too short to bless you.

You may not be facing a grave-like situation, yet even in the busyness of life—when you feel exhausted or lonely—those silent sufferings that may seem small to others can feel deeply painful to you. God does not measure or judge your threshold of pain. He comforts you whether you have a sprained leg or are undergoing major surgery. He is a gentle Father.

When you have Jesus, you have everything you need in life. In Him, your life is complete.

Short Prayer:

Lord Jesus, thank You for seeing me and for having compassion on my pain. You know my silent tears and unspoken burdens. Touch my life today, restore my hope, and turn my sorrow into joy. Help me to trust You fully, knowing that You are with me in every season. In Jesus’ name, amen. 🙏

It Is Noted

“Thus says the Lord of hosts, ‘I have noted what Amalek did to Israel in opposing them on the way when they came up out of Egypt.’” 1 Samuel 15:2 (ESV)

How strong is your memory when it comes to injustice—betrayal, rejection, or the wrongs done to you by people or even entire communities?

There is a reason God says, “Vengeance is Mine.” When we replay mistreatment in our minds, we slowly lose our peace. Dwelling on wounds breeds bitterness, and bitterness hinders blessing. What we are meant to release, we often rehearse. But when we hand these matters over to God, we step out of His business and back into our place of rest. He will handle it—thoroughly and perfectly—in His own way.

This passage reminds us that God remembers every detail and every wrongdoing committed against His people. After the Israelites were brought out of Egypt, they were attacked at Rephidim, near Mount Sinai. The Amalekites ambushed them from behind, targeting the weak and the weary—a cruel and unprovoked act. Though Israel won the battle, Scripture says God noted what Amalek had done.

Approximately 420 years later, during the reign of King Saul, God addressed that offense. What man might forget, God did not. He commanded that the remembrance of Amalek be blotted out from under heaven. Time did not erase the injustice. God’s justice was simply waiting for its appointed moment.

The journey out of Egypt was long and exhausting. The people were seeking rest, healing, and direction, yet Amalek attacked without mercy. Though Israel survived, heaven recorded the act.

We may not know how our parents or grandparents were mistreated, or what injustices were buried in silence, but a sovereign God remembers what generations forget—and He repays with perfect justice.

Israel was not perfect during their journey, nor in the centuries that followed. Yet God’s response was not canceled—only delayed. In His timing, justice was executed. God remembers every plot, every plan, and every unseen attack against you. He hears every word spoken in your absence and sees every hidden intention.

So rejoice even when you are humiliated. Give thanks when you are betrayed. Do not rush God to bring judgment—His timing is flawless. The greatest vengeance you can exercise is not retaliation, but peace. Be filled with the joy of the Lord. Pray for those who have wronged you. God is merciful, yet He is also just—and He never forgets.

Prayer:

Lord, teach me to trust You with every injustice and every wound. Help me release bitterness and guard my peace. Fill my heart with joy, faith, and confidence in Your perfect justice. I choose to rest in You, knowing that You remember, You see, and You will act in Your time. Amen.

Lower your nets in faith

“And Simon answered, “Master, we toiled all night and took nothing! But at your word I will let down the nets.””

Luke 5:5 ESV

Many of may be grew up in church, hearing the Word of God, or being raised in families that spoke about Jesus day and night. Yet when God instructs us to do something, many times we hesitate. Fear, uncertainty, or even too much knowledge in a particular area can cause us to resist His instruction.

But Scripture teaches us to lay down our self-intuition in exchange for a harvest of blessings.

In this passage, many people were gathered, waiting to hear Jesus speak. Peter was washing his nets after toiling all night, having caught nothing. Though exhausted and disappointed, his night had produced no results.

Jesus asked Simon to take Him a little farther from the shore. He sat in the boat and taught the crowd. When Jesus finished preaching, He instructed Simon to put out into deep water and lower the nets.

Simon responded honestly: they had worked all night, were weary, and caught nothing. Yet on the ground of Jesus’ word, he chose to obey.

When Simon lowered the nets, he caught such a great number of fish that the nets began to break, and he had to call for help.

At the word of Jesus, an assignment moved from emptiness to fulfillment.

Simon was a professional fisherman—skilled, experienced, and knowledgeable. He knew when and where to cast nets. He was fully aware that the place Jesus asked him to fish was the same place where he had labored all night without success. Logically, trying again seemed like a waste of time.

Yet Simon laid aside his expertise and took Jesus’ word seriously—placing it above his own understanding and professional knowledge. His obedience was not in vain.

Simon was not disappointed for believing and moving in faith. He not only lowered his nets, but also lowered his “I know” attitude, and that humility led to a breakthrough beyond measure.

The Word of God encourages us that in seasons of exhaustion, empty labor, and fruitless effort, the voice of God will satisfy us from the inside out.

Jesus alone can make the impossible possible. He calls life into emptiness, fills it with peace and joy, and transforms barren situations into favorable ones.

In any area of your life where God instructs you to lower your net—do not hesitate, or you may miss a great harvest of blessing. There are moments in the Kingdom of God when obedience may make us look foolish, but the wisdom of God always produces results.

There is no history of disappointment in trusting Jesus.

Prayer:

Lord Jesus, help me to lay down my understanding and trust Your word above my own knowledge. Give me the grace to obey, even when it doesn’t make sense. Teach me to lower my nets in faith, knowing that You alone turn emptiness into abundance. Amen.

Escape From The Dangers Of Desperation

No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.”

Romans 8:37 ESV

The story in the Bible reminds us that desperation and a lack of self-control can cost us the promises and blessings of God over our lives.

Jacob and Esau were twin brothers, with Esau being the firstborn. Esau was a wild hunter, while Jacob was a quiet man who dwelt in tents and tended the flocks. In ancient times, being the firstborn came with great privilege—greater authority, greater blessing, and a double portion of inheritance compared to the other siblings.

One day, Jacob was cooking stew when Esau came back from hunting, hungry and exhausted. Esau asked for some of the red stew, but Jacob requested his birthright in exchange. In his desperation, Esau replied, “What good is this birthright to me if I am about to die of hunger?” So Esau swore his birthright to Jacob. After eating the bread and the lentil stew, he got up and went his way. The Bible says that Esau despised his birthright.

Scripture calls this act immoral—not because he ate, but because he valued his momentary desire more than the blessing God had already given him.

The Word of God teaches us that the desires and desperation of the flesh can cause us to lose sight of God’s blessings. Esau’s hunger made him shortsighted. He lost sight of who he was, what belonged to him, and the privilege he carried in his father’s house.

We face the same danger. In moments of desperation, we are tempted to give up our identity—who we are and where we belong. The flesh often disguises desire as urgency, pressuring us to satisfy it immediately.

There is danger in desperation. Be mindful of the conversations you engage in during desperate moments—whether in financial need, love life, friendships, or relationships. Desperation can become a trap the enemy uses to cause a fall.

We live in a world where, in desperation for money, mothers sell their own children. In desperation for love and lust, men and women lose themselves to sexual sin. In desperation for fame, leaders and politicians fall into immoral practices. Even young teenagers are desperate to be seen, known, and famous.

Satisfaction gained through desperation is always temporary, but the consequences can follow you for the rest of your life.

In the New Testament, we see that Esau was rejected because he despised what God willingly gave him. In the dry places of your hunger, allow the Holy Spirit to pour out living water, rather than letting desperation rob you of your blessing forever.

Let Jesus be our role model in overcoming temptation through the Word of God. It is easier said than done—only you know the depth of your desperation and exhaustion—but it is possible to live a moral life. It is possible to overcome the flesh. It is possible to resist temptation and be saved from falling.

The Bible reminds us that we are more than conquerors.

May you be farsighted to see the blessings of God, rather than shortsighted in desperation and miss what rightfully belongs to you.

Prayer

Lord, help us to recognize the traps of desperation and to trust You in our moments of hunger and weakness. Strengthen us to value Your promises above temporary satisfaction. Fill us with Your Spirit, guide us by Your Word, and help us walk in victory as more than conquerors. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Your suffering will turn out to experience the Glory of God

“For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us.”

Romans 8:18 ESV

After losing my late husband and relocating to the US, when grief and trauma were still fresh in my mind, I encountered this scripture while scrolling through Facebook. I can confidently say this was the first time a scripture literally caught my spirit. We might see hundreds of verses in a day on social media, but this one hit differently.

I saw it as a simple wallpaper and scrolled past it quickly, yet something drew me back. As I slowly read those words, tears began to roll down my cheeks. The life-giving Word started ministering to me, and the Holy Spirit began to comfort me. It was a strange mixture of grief and joy—because in that moment, hope was planted in my spirit that God would reveal His glory soon.

At that time, I didn’t have deep knowledge of the Word, and in my grief I was simply searching for comfort in Scripture. A few days later, I had a vision of a book with “Romans 8” written on it. The next day, I felt urged to read that chapter—and I did. Every single word ministered to me in a unique and personal way.

The verse that says your present suffering is nothing compared to the glory that will be revealed became an anchor. It assured me that suffering will not end in suffering—it will end in glory.

This passage reminds us that we are children of God, heirs of God, and co-heirs with Christ, sharing in His inheritance. Jesus suffered for a while, and then He was glorified. Likewise, we also partake in His suffering so that we may partake in His glory.

Even in seasons of deep pain, you are not left alone as an orphan. The Spirit of God strengthens you so you can endure and experience His glory. What an encouragement—that in death, loss, shame, pain, betrayal, humiliation, or rejection, God still reveals His glory. Not only after we leave this earth, but even while we live here.

Yes, the glory revealed in eternity with Jesus will be far beyond anything we can imagine, but God also reveals His glory in our everyday lives. At your workplace, in your personal life, and in your spiritual walk, He expresses His glory in ways that bring peace and joy.

I can testify that Jesus was with me in my suffering—He grieved with me, stayed with me, and revealed His glory in my workplace, in my personal space, and through His Word.

Suffering is an unpleasant place to be. Prolonged suffering—whether physical or emotional—can change our entire way of living. In such moments we ask: When will this end? Will I die in this suffering? Can anything change? Why does God allow this?

I don’t have the answers to every why, what, when, or how. But I do know this: as you endure with praise on your lips and gratitude in your heart, the present suffering becomes nothing compared to the glory that will soon be revealed to you.

“For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace.”

Romans 8:6 ESV

Be in great expectation—God is preparing to reveal His great glory in your life.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, thank You for being near in every season of suffering. Strengthen my spirit, anchor my heart in Your Word, and help me endure with praise. Reveal Your glory in my life, in my pain, and in my journey. Let Your peace fill every place where grief once lived. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Stop The Noise and Hear The Voice

“Be still, and know that I am God!”

Psalm 46:10 NLT

I happened to watch one of my daughter’s town basketball games. The home team—my daughter’s team—was focused, playing with excellence, and already leading toward victory. At halftime, the opponent’s senior football team walked in to watch the girls play.

While everyone in the gym was quietly enjoying the game, the boys from the football team began making strange noises, distracting the home team. One of the star players was given a penalty shot. I’ve hardly ever seen her miss a basket, but just as she aimed, one of the boys made a loud noise, and she missed. On her second attempt, their conversations and giggles echoed through the quiet gym, distracting her again.

The referee noticed what they were doing and saw that it was intentional. He stopped the game and firmly instructed the boys to show discipline and respect—especially as fellow athletes. He then asked the opponent’s coach to send them out of the gym.

The star player aimed a third time—this time with fewer distractions—and she scored. With renewed focus, the home team went on to seal the victory.

As children of God, moments like this remind us to ignore the noise and stay focused on the goal set before us. It is crucial that we learn to tune out distractions and tune our hearts to God’s voice.

David inquired of the Lord every time he faced his enemies. It wasn’t a one-time habit—it was continual. As a king, he interacted with countless people daily—hearing complaints, petitions, official matters, and even the concerns of his own family. Yet in the midst of all that noise, David continually withdrew to hear from God in the now moment. He moved forward with confidence because his ears were trained to listen to the Lord.

Jesus also modeled this. He rose early, while it was still dark, just to step away from the noise and listen to the Father in prayer.

God speaks to us in the same way He spoke to David. And the greater the calling on your life, the greater the noise that will try to distract you.

Just like noise-canceling headphones help you hear clean sound and block out interference, pray that the Holy Spirit quiets your spirit so you can clearly hear the voice of God.

Where you are going depends on what you are willing to leave behind. To hear that still, small whisper from God, you must shut out the noise around you. Don’t entertain that conversation, that phone call, that place, or that group of people who brings unnecessary noise to distract you.

Do whatever it takes to clear the atmosphere so you can receive that one instruction, that one step forward, that one word of guidance from the Lord.

Prayer:

Father, quiet every noise that pulls my attention away from You. Teach me to be still, to hear Your voice, and to follow Your guidance with clarity and confidence. Tune my ears to Heaven, and lead me in the way I should go. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

The Blessing Of The Lord Adds No Sorrow To It

“The blessing of the Lord makes rich, and He adds no sorrow with it.” Proverbs 10:22 ESV

A lot of us desire to be rich, and some of us do become rich—but not everyone who is wealthy lives without pain or suffering. It takes God’s intervention to enjoy prosperity without sorrow.

The Bible records a man named Solomon, son of David, who is described as the wealthiest man who ever lived—because God Himself was personally involved in blessing him. Solomon loved the Lord and walked in His ways, just as his father David did. He was known for offering extravagant sacrifices, and after one such offering, God appeared to him in a dream and urged him to ask anything he desired, promising that He would grant it.

Solomon responded by praising God for His steadfast love and faithfulness toward David and his household. Instead of asking for wealth, long life, or victory over his enemies, he asked for wisdom and discernment to govern God’s people. God was pleased with this selfless request. Not only did He give Solomon the wisdom he asked for, but He also granted him unmatched riches, honor, and greatness. God affirmed that no king before him or after him would compare.

With God’s hand upon his life, Solomon increased on every side—with abundance, peace, and prosperity.

Chapters 4 and 5 of 1 Kings describe the fame, favor, and divine rest Solomon enjoyed in all his endeavors. Solomon himself confessed:

“But now the Lord my God has given me rest on every side. There is neither adversary nor misfortune.”

1 Kings 5:4 ESV

As long as Solomon walked with God, this king—who ruled a nation, formed countless alliances, and had enemies surrounding him—still expanded, increased, and enjoyed rest from adversaries and misfortune.

The Word of God encourages you today: you can enjoy every blessing with peace, without sorrow added to it. This does not mean you will never face trials, challenges, or misfortune. But it means the peace of God and the favor of God will overshadow everything that tries to bring suffering.

God will give you rest within your borders.

His grace is sufficient in your weakness.

The joy of the Lord will be your strength.

He will supply all your needs according to His riches.

And as you walk in His ways and love Him with all your heart, He will bless you—and add no sorrow to it. Great will be your peace.

Prayer

Father, I thank You for being the source of every good and perfect gift. Teach me to walk in Your ways, to love You wholeheartedly, and to seek Your wisdom above everything else. Surround my life with Your peace, favor, and rest. Bless the work of my hands, and let every blessing You give carry no sorrow with it. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

You are fearfully and wonderfully made

“I praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.Wonderful are Your works; my soul knows it very well.”

Psalm 139:14 ESV

There are organizations that announce a “most beautiful face of the year,” measuring beauty by jawlines, symmetry, angles, proportions, and features. One face is celebrated one year, only to be replaced the next. And after a few years, that once-famous face is forgotten.

This beauty is defined by human standards—standards created by people who themselves have flaws. It saddens me that imperfect humans confidently determine who is considered “the most beautiful.” What is celebrated today is easily forgotten tomorrow.

But the Bible tells a different story. God declares that you are fearfully and wonderfully made. That means you are not an accident. God took His time crafting you—designing you with intention, purpose, and divine perfection. This perfection is not human-defined; it is God-defined. He formed your innermost being and knitted you together in your mother’s womb.

Psalm 139 reveals how deeply God knows us—not just our internal design but also our entire journey. He knows our thoughts before we speak them. He understands every detail of our lives. This revelation is almost too wonderful to comprehend.

Just as a car must be taken back to its manufacturer for repair, the Bible encourages us to return to our Creator with our flaws, weaknesses, and broken places. Only He knows how to restore what He designed.

Human-defined value fades. God-defined value lasts into eternity.

When people measure your worth by social status, appearance, color, race, or background, remember this truth:

God intricately formed you for His purpose and His will.

When the disciples saw the man born blind, they asked Jesus if his condition was a result of his own sin or his parents’ sin. Jesus answered:

“It was not that this man sinned, or his parents, but that the works of God might be displayed in him.”

John 9:3 ESV

Every single person on this earth carries weight in God’s kingdom and has the privilege of displaying His glory. You are created in God’s likeness—handcrafted by the Creator Himself. Your name is engraved on His palms.

In every circumstance, hold this truth close:

You are fearfully and wonderfully made.

Prayer

Father, thank You for creating me with purpose, intention, and divine design. Help me see myself through Your eyes and not through the fading standards of this world.. Remind me daily that I am fearfully and wonderfully made. May my life reflect Your glory. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Nothing Will Overwhelm You

“When you pass through the waters, I will be with you;and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you;when you walk through fire you shall not be burned,and the flame shall not consume you.” Isaiah 43:2 ESV

Hogenakkal is a place on the Tamil Nadu–Karnataka border,in India, known for its beautiful waterfalls and scenic views. The government later built a crocodile rehabilitation and rescue center there, so the area naturally had many crocodiles. Today there are safety measures, but back in the 1990s, things were not as secure.

During that time, our family visited the area for a short trip. It was a season of heavy rainfall, the water currents were fierce, and even the riverbanks were overflowing. Yet crowds of tourists still flocked to the place.

There was a famous coracle boat ride that took visitors close to the waterfalls for sightseeing. But it came with a risk—especially during that dangerous season. Many tourists ignored the warnings of the officials, and people were not disciplined enough to obey safety instructions.

My dad, being very curious and adventurous, wanted all seven of us to go together on one boat. My mother disagreed, but my dad insisted. The boatman firmly refused and finally explained why.

Just a few days earlier, a tragic incident had taken place. A couple with their infant—less than a year old—and a few others were on a coracle ride. At one point, the boat slowed down, and a massive crocodile approached, attempting to capsize it. The animal was in full attack mode. Panic erupted. The boatman, experienced but terrified, told them that the crocodile would not back away without taking something—and suggested throwing the baby into the water so the rest could survive.

The parents refused, but time was running out. If the boat capsized, everyone would drown or be dragged under. In the chaos and pressure from others, the baby was thrown into the water. The crocodile took the child, and the rest were saved. It was a horrifying event that shook the entire area.

After hearing this, my dad dropped the idea of the long scenic ride and took us instead on the backwater route. It was less thrilling, but at least we enjoyed it without fear gripping our hearts.

When I think about that story now, one thing stands out: in moments of crisis, even your closest people—your own flesh and blood—may abandon you out of fear or self-preservation. People who promised to stand with you may suddenly step back. Human strength fails, human loyalty falters, and human courage collapses under pressure.

But this Scripture comes as a powerful encouragement: we have a God who does not abandon us.

When you walk through raging waters, He walks with you.

When you face consuming fire, He stands beside you.

He doesn’t just promise deliverance—He promises His presence.

At some point in life, all of us walk a path where no one can go with us. The waters roar. The flames rise. The journey feels lonely. Yet this verse is God’s assurance to your heart: You are never alone.

God will not throw you into deep waters and leave you there.

He is your lifeguard—guiding, carrying, and covering you.

He was with Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in the fire, and He will be with you.

The flames will not consume you.

God never promised a life without trials, but He promised His unfailing presence in every season—highs and lows, tears and joy, victories and failures. And the proof is He gave His only Son, Jesus Christ, to rescue you from every harm.

Be encouraged today: Jesus is with you. He will never leave you nor forsake you.

Prayer

Father, thank You for being my refuge in deep waters and my shield in the fire. When fear rises and storms surround me, remind me that You are with me and will never abandon me. Strengthen my heart to trust Your presence, Your protection, and Your promises. In Jesus’ mighty name, Amen.

God Will Show You Wonders

I Will Show You Wonders — Micah 7:15

God has a way of capturing a person’s attention and drawing them toward salvation. He works in wonderful, unexpected ways—and my story is one of them. Thank God for social media today, where at least we can hear and see good news even in the midst of evil. My encounter with God happened long before social media existed, when hearing Scripture was rare. Yet the grace of God reached me.

During my college days, I failed one math subject in my first semester and carried it all the way to the final year. Along with that, I failed many other subjects in different semesters. The only relief was the system that allowed students to move from one semester to another with arrears, but all the subjects had to be completed within four years to receive a first class honor. Honestly, if not for that, my four-year engineering course would have taken forever to complete.

By the time I reached my 7th semester, I had almost 17 subjects pending. Out of 60 students, I was probably the one with the most failed papers. I could hardly study because of my family situation, and engineering—especially computer science—was not what I wanted to pursue. In my culture, parents decide what children must study, not their interests.

I felt ashamed watching classmates get placed in companies during campus recruitment while I had no idea what my future held. I realized I had to set aside everything and start working hard. During that season, my mother secretly accepted Jesus and was baptized without my father’s knowledge. She became a prayer warrior, praying over everything in our lives.

I studied with all my strength and managed to pass 16 subjects in the 7th semester—but that one math subject from the first semester still stood like a giant before me.

The final exam was my last attempt to pass with first class. I tried, but math was extremely difficult for me. On the day of the exam, I had a high viral fever. My condition was so bad my mother was waiting in the college office out of fear that I would pass out. I sat in the examination hall with juniors; the faculty handed me the question paper, but I could hardly see. I skimmed through the questions and realized I knew the answers, yet my body was too weak to write. The faculty tried to help, but I could barely hold my pen. To the best of my memory, I wrote only for about 50 marks, while the passing score was 45.

I somehow endured the entire three-hour exam, already convinced I would fail again. When my mom asked how it went, I told her I would fail—after all, I had written only half the paper.

I felt strangely relieved. After years of setbacks, struggles, and back-to-back exams, I was just exhausted. All that remained was to wait for the results and see if I would even finish my course.

Around that time, I received a Christian magazine addressed to my name with the Scripture: “I will show you wonders.” As I walked, I kept reading that verse. Everything about it felt new, yet I knew in my spirit that this Word was for me. I wanted to believe in the Jesus my mother had been fervently praying to.

I didn’t know how to pray, but I believed Jesus could show me wonders—even in that math subject that had become a mountain in my life.

One of my relatives offered to bribe the faculty to get my paper passed. I refused. I told him, “No, I believe in this promise—I will show you wonders.” My mom looked at me, both happy and uncertain, but I could see hope in her eyes.

Then the results came.

To my shock, I passed all my 8th semester subjects—and that one math paper I had carried from first year to final year. I couldn’t believe it. Even more surprising, I passed with 47 marks. It was nothing short of a miracle.

My mom had gone to church to pray for my results. When she returned and I told her the good news, she hugged and kissed me—not because I passed the subject, but because I held on to God’s promise, and God honored it. I realized her prayer was more for my salvation than my marks.

That miracle encouraged me to pursue this wonder-working God. Every phase of my life since then has been marked by His hand. The once “dumb student,” as I used to see myself, later completed a master’s degree in the U.S. with a 3.6 GPA—and without paying a single penny. Opportunities my peers longed for, God graciously gave me.

Today I can confidently say: I have a wonder-working God.

This same God is alive and still doing wonders. Let the Word of God encourage you today—whatever seems impossible, God can turn it around. He is faithful. Trust Him, and you will see wonders in your own life.

Prayer

Father, thank You for being a God of wonders. Strengthen my faith to trust You in every impossible situation. Show Your mighty hand in my life, just as You did for Your children before me. Help me hold on to Your promises with confidence and expectation. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
