📖 1 Peter 5:7 Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.

📖 John 8:34 (ESV) Jesus answered them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, everyone who practices sin is a slave to sin.

Influence. Our world is consumed by it. Social media thrives on the pursuit of likes, followers, and status. But what does true influence look like in God’s eyes? According to Paul, real influence isn’t about popularity—it’s about character. It’s not found in a platform or a blue checkmark. It’s a call to each of us—no matter our age—to lead by example: in the way we speak, the way we love, what we believe, and how we live every day. In a culture that often celebrates compromise and overlooks integrity, God calls His people to stand out—to influence through steady faith and authentic living. Let your life shine with purpose. 📖 1 Timothy 4:12 (NIV) "Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity."

What does it truly mean to live from relationship rather than obligation? In this verse, King David urges his son Solomon to pursue God with sincerity and wholehearted devotion. Truly knowing God goes beyond simply believing He exists—it’s about the posture of our hearts. That’s why a relationship with God is far more powerful and authentic than just having knowledge about Him. Even the demons recognize who God is, but they don’t walk with Him in relationship. Through Christ, we’re invited into something far deeper—an intimate, living connection with the Creator of our hearts. 📖 1 Chronicles 28:9 (NIV) “And you, my son Solomon, acknowledge the God of your father, and serve him with wholehearted devotion and with a willing mind, for the Lord searches every heart and understands every desire and every thought. If you seek him, he will be found by you; but if you forsake him, he will reject you forever.”

📖 Lamentations 3:22 The steadfast love of the LORD never ceases; his mercies never come to an end;

📖 John 15:5

📖 1 Corinthians 15:54 The resurrection isn’t just a future promise—it’s a present hope. Jesus didn’t just defeat death for Himself; He defeated it for us. The things that feel final—grief, loss, brokenness—don’t get the last word. Victory does. Because of Christ, even our worst endings can become new beginnings.
