Encouragement for this week
I remind myself of this little story about Martin Luther. Luther was asked why he preached the gospel every week. He replied, ‘Because people don’t believe it.’ He said he would stop preaching it when they finally lived it—and he preached it until he died.
One of his most cited ideas / quotes is “The gospel is not preached only once or twice, but constantly, daily, for people forget it every day.”
We, and myself mostly, revert back to forgetting the gospel and trying to appease God with the things I do. I struggle daily to believe and accept that Jesus did it all for me and there is nothing I can do to make Him love me more (or less disappointed) or curb his favor.
This week, let’s focus on the gospel. God loves you exactly where you’re at and He’s already done it all. You don’t have to do anything other than accept His grace and love. Jesus did it all. Keep prayers simple this week. Maybe just shut up and sit in the presence of your Father’s love.
