Hi Youth!

The summer is roaring by quickly with just so limited time left to spare for the summer. However, as time flies, we cannot allow ourselves to lose focus on what our Heavenly Father is doing in each one of our lives. In Romans 4:1-5 it says this,

“5 We have been made right with God because of our faith. Now we have peace with him because of our Lord Jesus Christ. ² Through faith in Jesus we have received God’s grace. In that grace we stand. We are full of joy because we expect to share in God’s glory. ³ And that’s not all. We are full of joy even when we suffer. We know that our suffering gives us the strength to go on. ⁴ The strength to go on produces character. Character produces hope. ⁵ And hope will never bring us shame. That’s because God’s love has been poured into our hearts. This happened through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.”

Did you all know that we are made righteous just by simply placing our faith in Him? God is not asking us to do things in order to be accepted because He values us being with Him higher than how we can serve Him.

Take time today to reconnect with your Heavenly Father. Remember His faithfulness so that unbelief would not prevent you from getting close to your maker. We repeat what we don’t repair in ourselves. Be blessed in finding Him when you seek Him with all of your heart this week.

Blessings,

Sam
