Isn't it true that in our own human nature, we tend to put lids and limits on what's actually possible?
Unfortunately, we do it all the time -- sometimes without even knowing it. We get hurt by someone, disappointed by something that didn't come to fruition or become fearful of the unknown, so we slowly close off the possibilities of what could be.
Yet, we serve a God who does the impossible, performs miracles and has so much more in store for you! What could be waiting for us beyond our limitations? What awaits when we allow a limitless faith to be fully entrusted to our limitless God?
God works out His redemptive purposes in a way that is unique to each of us. A life verse reflects this uniqueness and reminds us that regardless of what the previous chapters held, God is continually writing the story of our redemption. It's a verse that reminds us of the things that matter most in life and refocuses us to keep an eternal perspective. It allows us to articulate our faith to those around us and gives us confidence to live out our call. A life verse can help us move on from our old stories of failure and defeat by replacing the lies we’ve believed with God’s truth. It gives us an intimate closeness to God and becomes no longer a scripture to believe, but a truth to live. What's your life verse?
