I love that there are people all over the globe who love Jesus. Most have never seen our Saviour, and yet, we love Him anyway

There have been people who love Jesus more than their parents, spouse, siblings, home, and country

There is a love for Jesus that supersedes torture. Millions of Christians have died for their faith over the years, and millions will continue to do so

People have travelled near and wide, and lands of the ”uncivilised” just to show the love of God, and to share the Gospel

Billions of people, even still today, long to see Jesus in the flesh, and that He might return within their lifetime

Friends, although we might not have seen Jesus, we love Him with everything in us. He is the reason we breathe, the reason we said ”yes” to the call, and the reason that no matter what our circumstances look like, we praise Him

Faith in Jesus is the source and overflow of joy in our lives. It makes the invisible visible and the supernatural manifest in the natural. Faith allows us to step out and be bold with certainty, as though Jesus has spoken to us face-to-face

Today, let us remember that our reward for finishing what has been put in front of us is the salvation of our souls, and eternity with our King

“You love him even though you have never seen him. Though you do not see him now, you trust him; and you rejoice with a glorious, inexpressible joy. The reward for trusting him will be the salvation of your souls.”

1 Peter 1:8-9
