1 Corinthians 2:9 – Today’s Verse for May 10, 2025 Saturday

“But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.“
— 1 Corinthians 2:9 KJV

Reflection on Today's Verse

Let’s be honest—most of us think we’ve got a decent imagination. We dream big, hope hard, and plan like we know what’s coming. But God is always ten steps ahead, quietly laughing in love at how small our biggest dreams really are.

This verse isn’t about someday-in-heaven only. It’s about right now too. God’s goodness isn’t just waiting in the clouds—it’s weaving through the mess, the waiting, and even the letdowns. What He’s preparing for you? It’s beyond the reach of your senses, your logic, even your Pinterest vision board.

You might feel unseen, unheard, forgotten. But your love for Him doesn’t vanish in the dark. He sees it. He’s building something for you that can’t be Googled, copied, or rushed. It’s tailor-made—overflowing, undeserved, and better than you dared to hope for.

Grace means even when you don’t feel ready, He is.

Personal Prayer

Lord, I can’t see what You’re doing behind the scenes, but I trust You’re working for my good. Even when my hope feels small, remind me that Your plans are bigger than anything I could imagine.

Thank You for loving me enough to prepare more than I deserve. Help me stay faithful, even in the waiting. Open my heart to receive the beauty I haven’t seen yet.

In Jesus mighty name I pray, Amen.
