As April 29 approaches, let us ask you a question: Where are you in your journey with God?

Whether you’re still in your infancy, or maybe even maturing as the days go by, or you’re lost in a sea of confusion, keep in mind the faith that Jesus had in today’s reading. Remember the story of Jesus’ friend Lazarus? When Jesus came to visit and found his friend had passed, his sister told Him “My Lord, if You were here, my brother would have not died.” His response? “Whoever believes in me, will never die.” Jesus knew that despite the fact that Lazarus was dead, He could still resurrect him. The reason? Because he had faith, complete and utter faith. He knew that He had the power to do all things with and through the Lord, even if that meant resurrecting a friend who had died four days earlier.

We live in a time where believing in God can sometimes be seen as a sign of weakness, but we have something that they don’t know about: faith. Faith in a God that is unseen, but felt in the deepest crevices of our beings. Faith in a God that makes all things possible, even resurrecting a dead person and bringing them into a new life. We have faith in a God that assures us that even if we’ve had our set of downfalls, our best days are yet to come.

No matter where you may be in your walk of life, continually challenge yourself to remain faithful. We promise that you will see the beauty that He will reveal in front of your eyes. After all, when you’re dry, that’s when you’re the most vulnerable to be lit on fire. And when that fire is burning, your light will shine brighter than you ever thought possible.

Ignite the fire, and let your light shine on April 29.
