We all face seasons when life feels uncertain, when the people and circumstances we have depended on slip away, and the future looks daunting. In those moments, we often try to find peace by forcing things to change. But lasting peace doesn’t come from getting life under control; it comes from knowing that Jesus holds our lives securely. We can endure today’s heartaches because our future is secure and our deepest hope rests in the One who will never abandon us. Even our darkest seasons will end, and sorrow will not have the final word!

Desperate for Jesus
In our culture of platform building and rising celebrity status, we forget that Jesus values the least. He places honor on the poor, the broken, the messy, and the marginalized. Lepers in Jesus’ day were outcasts of society. They had absolutely no status and were looked down on as untouchables. Yet, when Jesus encountered 10 lepers pleading for help, He treasured each one of them, heard their cries, and healed them. All of us can identify with those lepers more than we may realize. Our lives have been eaten away by sin and we desperately need Jesus to cleanse us. Are you desperate enough to call out to Him for help and receive the healing He offers?
