Day 355 - Do You Believe in the Lord?

Do you believe in the Lord? Be content with yes. Your works will be mighty.

He has made clear to you, O man, what is good; and what is desired from you by the Lord; only doing what is right, and loving mercy, and walking without pride before your God. (Micah 6.8 Bible in Basic English (BBE))

Do you ever wonder if you and your faith, goodness, and compassion can make a notable difference in the world? Why do you ever consider things like that? Why is your faith so small? Do you doubt yourself too much?

Do you try to live your life with kindness to others? Do you believe in the Lord? Do you believe Jesus is your redeemer? Do you love your family and your neighbors? Are you kind to strangers? These are all examples of faith in action and belief. Actual examples of you making a difference in the world, a positive difference.

People will not always show the same emotions or act the same way, yet they are among God's chosen. So why do you wonder if you can affect the world? The answer is most definitely yes, and in truth, you affect it every day with every action you take. With actions, you take your place in the Kingdom in the Lord's army, making one change at a time for good.

Prayer:

Father, help me realize with humility how I can and do affect the world and make a positive difference. Let that strengthen me and cause me to refuse doubt. Help me always know that I am here for your purpose with all I need to achieve it. Along the journey, I will rest in your joy and peace at every opportunity, for that is my gift from you to me, and I am grateful. Lord, I love you, and thank you. I pray in Jesus Christ's name. Amen
