Courage in Difficult Places
My dear son,
Whatever difficulties the world may bring today, I want you to find peace in Jesus. He encouraged his disciples by declaring that he had overcome the world. Rest your confidence in that promise.
Strong faith does not require winning every disagreement. Ask your Father for the courage to keep truth and love together. Even when the right path feels inconvenient, I hope you will choose it in trust.
Enjoy joyful days freely, and ask for help on days when you need strength. Keep Jesus' love close in every kind of day. Lean your heart on your Father as you live faithfully in the place given to you today.
With all my love,
Your Father
John 16:33
WEB33I have told you these things, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have trouble; but cheer up! I have overcome the world.”
A short reflection
Jesus tells his disciples that they will face trouble in the world but can find peace in him and take courage because he has overcome the world.
