Hello good everyone!š¤©š¤
Today's Scripture
āWhen he finally came to his senses, he said to himself, āAt home even the hired servants have food enough to spare, and here I am dying of hunger! I will go home to my father and say, āFather, I have sinned against both heaven and you.āāā
Luke 15:17ā18, NLT
Get Real
Arkeemia, the prodigal son wasted his fatherās inheritance on wild living, had no money, ended up feeding hogs and eating their food to survive. This could have been the end of the story. But todayās Scripture says he finally got real, quit pretending like everything was okay, took off the mask, admitted his sin, and returned to his father. When the father saw him coming, the father came running, hugged him, forgave him, and restored him to his sonship.
The father represents God. When you take your mask off, He will come running to you. That means you get honest and humble enough to say, āGod, I need help with this addiction. I need help with my temper. I need help in my marriage. Iāve made a mess of things. I canāt straighten my life up by myself.ā He knows your insecurities, your fears, your failures, youāre weaknesses. You donāt have to pretend youāre okay. When you come to God and ask for His help, for His forgiveness, for His mercy, thatās when He begins to restore you and set you on the right path.
A Prayer for Today
āFather, thank You that I can humble myself and admit my weaknesses, sins, and failures. Thank You that Your power goes to work in me when I stop pretending that I have it all together. I am taking off the masks and asking You to help bring the change I need. In Jesusā Name, Amen.ā
Have a blessed and beautiful day!āļøš¦š„°šš¾
