Today’s meditation is from “The Weekly Faith Project,” a journal to cultivate genuine faith, edited by Zondervan.
Faith is allowing God to define who you are. Not the world. Not family, friend, or enemy. And who does God say you are? You are His own treasured possession (1 PE 2:9), His lavishly loved child (1 JO 3:1). He knows every hair on your head and every tear you cry (LK 12:7, PS 56:8). He writes your name on the palm of His hand (ISA 49:16). God knows you, and He calls you “Mine.”
But now, this is what the Lord says—he who created you, Jacob, he who formed you, Israel: “Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine. [Isaiah 43:1]
The Lord Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. [Psalm 46:7]
