Nothing stops the light of Jesus Christ.
"The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it" (John 1:5). In this world, darkness exists. But, for those who know Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord, ultimate victory remains 100% eternally secure in Him! When temporary trials and tragedies pierce us to the core, we take comfort in the One pierced for us who suffered beyond human description. We rest in His constant presence and the unshakeable truth that Christ came to deliver us from evil. For believers, nothing changes the mind-blowing reality of eternal victory and His constant presence here and hereafter. His grace and mercy allow us to grieve with hope and never give up.

Yes, the buzz of noisy, glowing screens and constant stimulation of today's technology inundate our senses. People guzzle coffee and push hard until all their buttons are pressed to the max.

Yet the pop culture message continues to spread that you are more than enough or to just follow your heart. The problem rests, however, in the fact that we are a frazzled people with sinful hearts and resources that are not enough in our own strength. Not enough.

But then the Lord Jesus enters. And God is infinitely more than enough. He strengthens us to do what He's called us to do. He never asks us to do things unless He supplies the resources (i.e. the grace, the strength) for us to do them through Him and for Him. He loves us more than our best, wildest dreams!

Today begins the rest of your life.
Be sure it's God's best for your life.

Many rumors circulate online and offline about living life well. Passivity is not peace. Posting on social media is not a substitution for Christ-honoring actions in life at home and at work. Busyness is not necessarily accomplishing God's business. This is why we must be careful and prayerful to stop and listen to God's Word.

Pray and obey out of love (and not legalism). As Christians, we are to overcome evil with good. "Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good (Romans 12:21). With God's help, we can!

Heads up: No matter what trial you face, the enemy will try to tempt you to doubt God's character traits. The enemy of our souls wants to add pain and problems to your trial through the temptation to distrust our Heavenly Father. Don't fall for it. The Lord still loves you. Our Lord Jesus never forsakes His own. When we repent and believe on Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord, we are forever adopted by our Heavenly Father who makes us co-heirs with Christ. Take His Word to heart: "The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, heirs also, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him so that we may also be glorified with Him" (Romans 8:16-17).

With His promises and purposes on our minds and hearts, we must continue to trust Him with our pain: We must remember His incalculable suffering on the cross for you and me.

Consider this devotional a prayerful pep talk.

Yes, I know this very well: Many times, God answers prayer in ways we don't understand yet. (Emphasis on "yet.") When we who know Christ see Him face-to-face, everything will make perfect sense in the glory of His holy, loving presence. Experience a taste of His goodness today as He makes known to you the path of life.

God's Love Is What We Need
By Stacie Stoelting Hudzinski
If fame, power, and wealth satisfied souls, then Hollywood and Washington, D.C. would be utopia. They are the opposite of that. As an author and recording artist, I've sung and shared my testimony before U.S. presidents, celebrities, and on national media. I've met and befriended a lot of people from all kinds of backgrounds and positions. I've seen Scripture lived out. Only those who know Jesus Christ personally experience resilient hope, love, joy, peace, and security.

No "thing" or status satisfies hearts. Only Jesus Christ deserves our total worship and love-based obedience because He alone is Savior and Lord. Those who know Him know what I mean.

Believe in Jesus. Hold nothing back.
No one ever shocks God. He knows everything. And He still sent His Son. He still suffered more than any of us as He took the punishment on the cross in our place. Yes, that's amazing love. And talk (sing!) about amazing grace!

Do you really think He would withdraw now if He didn't run from the cross then? He loves us! He wants us. Yes, you. And me, too. Such love, such faithfulness, such security exist in Christ Jesus and knowing Him personally as Savior and Lord. Let Him in to rule and save you completely from all sin, death, and hell. You see, the world says to believe in yourself and ignore Him. But we need to believe in Him. Read and listen to the devotional here: https://conta.cc/4kEPQBl

Excerpt from Stacie's devotional:
God sees you
and loves you.
"I have seen..." are three powerful words God has spoken repeatedly in His Word in regards to the oppression of His people. For example, Exodus 3:9 says, "And now, behold, the cry of the sons of Israel has come to Me; furthermore, I have seen the oppression with which the Egyptians are oppressing them."

Consider the awe-inspiring true concept of being seen by the Creator of all the galaxies. Just stop and think about it. To be seen by God and to know He knows...everything. Everything. Yes, everything!

Here is one very moving passage: “'Return and say to Hezekiah the leader of My people, 'This is what the Lord, the God of your father David says: 'I have heard your prayer, I have seen your tears...'" (2 Kings 20:5). That excerpt from 2 Kings 20:5 touched my heart: Think of the Lord saying "I have seen your tears"!
