  • Jonah 4 "Should God not show mercy?" (Tuesday 5/5/26)
    May 4 2026

    Jonah 4 reveals a surprising truth: sometimes the hardest heart to change is not the sinner’s, but the believer’s. While God shows compassion to Nineveh, Jonah wrestles with anger, exposing how easy it is to receive grace for ourselves but resist it for others. This passage challenges us to examine whether our hearts truly reflect God’s mercy—or whether we are still holding on to our own comfort and judgments.

  • Psalm 70 "Lord help me now!" (Monday 5/4/26)
    May 3 2026

    Psalm 70 is a raw, urgent cry for God to act—now. In just a few short verses, David shows us that faith doesn’t always sound polished; sometimes it simply pleads, “Lord, hurry,” while still trusting that God is our help and deliverer. This psalm invites us to bring our need honestly before God and to anchor our hope in Him, even when the answer feels delayed.

  • Luke 13:1-5 "You must repent!" (Friday 5/1/26)
    May 1 2026

    In Luke 13:1–5, Jesus confronts the assumption that tragedy is always a direct result of greater sin, redirecting the focus from speculation about others to personal repentance. He makes it clear that all stand in need of turning to God, warning that without repentance, all will likewise perish. This passage presses us to see life’s uncertainties not as occasions for judgment on others, but as urgent calls to examine our own hearts before God.
