Meditation is not merely a passive act; it involves recalling what we have committed to memory and pondering deeper implications and applications in our daily lives. It calls for a deliberate engagement with God’s truths, urging us to understand and embody them in practical ways. As we embark on this journey together, our prayer in writing this book is that each of you will discover the joy and blessings that come from meditating on and praying through God's Word. May these moments of reflection serve to strengthen your faith, uplift your spirit, and bring you closer to the heart of God.

We believe God wants all to have an encounter with Him so that we have the confidence to know that we have eternal life. The only way to know this is if our salvation rests in Jesus and not our own performance. If it depends on us, then we are saved on a good day, and on a bad day, we aren't really sure. If I rely on what Jesus has done for me, then I can know that God has given me eternal life. Specifically, giving Jesus His rightful place will cause us to walk in humility and grace.
