Today's Jesus card is living in the peace that is given to us when we have faith in our Lord and Saviour.
Once again, we have the reoccurring theme of salvation through faith. In today's reading I would like to emphasize on the faith that with God, all things are possible, and this is also a short theme in the predecessor reading.
Even when all of our resources are deplenished, even when we feel totally alone and abandoned, even when we have let ourselves and those around us down, and have to count from minute to minute just to survive - when we have a real trust in God, a real praise for Him, we will soon and miraculously see that he will repay us when we suffer alongside him, He WILL give us what we both want and need (Deuteronomy 30.3).
This is God's promise to all of us, absolutely all of us. Hurt, suffer, cry, yell, kick the wall, but never forget that God is right there, and at anytime you want to collapse to the floor, he will cover you completely with his healing love and protection. And when you rise, remember to testify, remember that God healed you of your madness, and prosperity will soon follow you (Jeremiah 29.11).
So go in peace, let your cross be lifted high in the faith that God WILL DELIVER YOU!! (Psalm 50.15) Amen.
