Reflection on Today's Verse
God never told you to prove yourself; He told you to trust Him. This verse tells you the truth: God justifies the ungodly, not the perfect. When life makes you feel like you’re not good enough or when you keep making the same mistakes, this verse tells you the truth. He meets you where you are, not where you want to be.
Your faith is counted as good because it is based on what Christ has already done. Let this calm your heart today. You are accepted not because you worked hard enough, but because Jesus is enough.
Personal Prayer
Dear God in Heaven, thank you for your grace that is always there for me, even when I mess up. Help me to trust in what Jesus has done, not in what I can do. Calm my fears, my guilt, and the stress I put on myself.
Today, please help me trust You more. Make my faith stronger, remind me of how much You love me, and guide me in Your peace. As You promised, count my faith as right.
In Jesus name I pray, Amen.
