Friday, July 22, 2016

The followers were more amazed and said to each other, "Then who can be saved?" Jesus looked at the followers and said, "This is something that people cannot do themselves. It must come from God. God can do all things."

Key Thought

This is true or our faith is really in vain. We have strength beyond human will power, knowledge, or ability. Even more importantly, God through Jesus has covered all of the shortcomings and sins that we have. God is ... and was ... and will be ... God. Nothing is impossible with him!

Today's Prayer

O Father, please make this truth self-evident to those who lead in your churches. I trust that everything is possible with you! In Jesus' name. Amen.
