Here are my reflections and comments from today’s scripture from Our Daily Inspirations App.
My brothers and sisters in Christ, before I read or comment on God’s word, I pray That He prepares my heart to receive his guidance and ask that He uses me as his vessel to comment on His word.
The scripture is from 1Peter1:8-9, “Whom, not having known, you love. In him, though now you don’t see him, yet believing, you rejoice greatly with joy that is unspeakable and full of glory, receiving the result of your faith, the salvation of your souls.”
The devotion is titled Our Soulmate by Heather Tietz. We are reminded that Jesus is our soulmate. He shares our fundamental values. We love God, others, and ourselves. Jesus’ core traits we emulate like love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, and self-control. Since we have passionate love for Jesus, we invite Him into our hearts. Jesus stays on our minds, and we look forward to spending time with Him, praising, telling our stories, giving our ailments and dilemmas to fix. We are always eager for His comfort. Therefore, everyday spend time soaking up Jesus’ word and feeling you are loved.
Reflection: In what way do you most love to spend time with God.
Here was my response: I love to spend time with God at sunrise. I spend this time reading His word and sharing it with others.
My Prayer for us: Dear Lord, Thank you for loving us and providing a way for our salvation. We will study, memorize, and hide Your words in our hearts. We look forward to the day when we can see You face to face. In Jesus’ name we pray, Amen.
