Begin Here
Scripture
Romans 8:38–39
Reflection
As Paul concludes this magnificent chapter, he piles up every possible force that might seem threatening—life and death, present and future, earthly and spiritual powers—and declares that none of them can separate us from God’s love in Christ Jesus.
That is where every day can begin. Before you consider your responsibilities, your challenges, or your uncertainties, remember this unchanging truth: you belong to Jesus. His love surrounds you today just as surely as it will forever. Every morning is another opportunity to begin with the Gospel.
Prayer
Gracious Father, thank You that nothing in all creation can separate me from Your love in Christ Jesus. Help me begin each day resting in that promise and living with confidence, joy, and hope. Amen.
Application Question:
How can you intentionally begin tomorrow by remembering God’s unchanging love before anything else demands your attention?
