Pensées sur le Verset du Jour...
La vérité est souvent aussi simple que douce : si Jésus est notre vie, alors nos vies n'ont pas de fin. La mort ne nous ôte pas la vie, mais nous fait entrer dans la vie en présence même de Jésus !
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
The truth is often as simple as it is sweet — if Jesus is our life, then our lives have no end. In faith, we shared with Jesus in his saving death, burial, and resurrection (1 Corinthians 15:3-7) through our baptism as we called on the name of the Lord to save us (Colossians 2:12; Acts 22:15-16). Our lives — our eternal essence and identity — are hidden with Christ and will be fully revealed when we share with Jesus in his eternal glory (Colossians 3:3-4). Death does not strip life from us, but ushers us into life in Jesus' very presence, where no power or event, not even death, can steal us from his grasp (Romans 8:38-39).
Ma Prière...
Dieu éternel, merci d'avoir envoyé Jésus pour me montrer ton amour et merci de le renvoyer bientôt pour me ramener à la maison. Il est mon ancre dans les tempêtes de la vie et ma lumière dans les nuits les plus sombres me rappelant que Tu m'aimes d'un amour éternel. Au nom de Jésus, de la Résurrection et de la Vie, je prie. Amen.
My Prayer...
O Eternal God, thank you for sending Jesus to show us your love, and thank you for sending him again in the future. Jesus is our anchor in the storms of life and our light in our darkest nights, reminding us that you love us with an undying love. In the name of Jesus, the Resurrection and the Life, and the one in whom we find life that never ends,* we pray. Amen.
* This is based on John 10:25-26 when Jesus said to Martha about her brother Lazarus:
“I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?"
