I realized that I needed Him when my way of life was filling me with darkness.

In the book of Psalms, the ancient songbook of the Bible, it says: “If I had cherished sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened.”

Jesus isn’t interested in temporarily fixing our bad decisions; He’s interested in healing us completely.

Where are you? Do you hate your sin? The things you do that destroy you and destroy others?

If you're there, where I was, cry out to Him today.

He’s waiting for you. He’s listening. He’s standing at the doorway watching and waiting and welcoming you home.

Always remember, there is hope with God. This is Wendy Palau.

Is He angry at my failures? Demanding? Hard to please?”

I also used to think that. But then I read this simple truth in the Bible: God wants everyone to be saved and to come to an understanding of the truth.

This is good news for all of us. No matter what your background, no matter what doubts you have, or past mistakes—God is reaching out to you right now.

He does not expect that you have all the answers or have your life altogether. He just wants you to take one step toward Him.

Would you say this simple prayer with me? “God, I do believe in You, that You want me and You love me. And I want to know You. Please come, help me connect with You today. And I’ll walk with You all the days of my life. In Jesus’ name, amen.”

Always remember, there is hope with God. I’m Andrew Palau.

Do you think of it as following rules? Trying to be good to escape punishment?

The Bible delivers to us this good news! It says God’s grace has been revealed, bringing salvation for all people.

Grace means you don’t have to be perfect. It means God comes to you, right where you are. Not to shame you, but to help you and to rescue you.

Grace is the starting point; it’s not a reward. It’s offered to everyone, and that means you.

You can start fresh today. Not by working harder, but simply by opening your heart and inviting Him in.

You can just speak to Him and pray to say, “God, I don’t have it all together, You know this, but I need Your grace. Will you please forgive me and help me to follow You. And I will follow you. In Jesus’ name, amen.”

Always remember, there is hope with God.

"For the grace of God has been revealed, bringing salvation to all people." Titus 2:11

My name is Wendy, and my name actually means “wanderer”.

Growing up I had deep discontent—always looking for something else, always wanting what I didn’t have. I was filled with fear and depression, anxiety; there’s nothing quite as frightening as being lost.

Until I encountered the amazing King and Savior, Jesus, who said:

“All, like sheep, have gone astray, each has turned to their own way, but God laid on HIM (that’s Jesus) the sin of us all.” And He also said, “I’m the good shepherd. Who leaves the 99 sheep to go for the one lost sheep.”

Have you wandered? Come home— let yourself be found by the Shepherd.

Have you ever thought, “In all of this turmoil, can one person make a difference?”

Well, the Bible says, yes! One person did make a huge difference. God sent His Son—Jesus—not just for one group of people, but to be a light to the nations, so that God’s salvation could reach to the ends of the earth.

And that light is still shining today, spreading out more and more all the time—through people like you and like me, who have simply said yes to God.

If you’ve been longing for change in your life, this is your chance. God is reaching out to you now. Will you take His hand?

Pray this with me. You can just say to Him: “God, I need Your light in my life. Fill me with Your hope—Your promised hope and help me to know You. Rescue me now, Lord Jesus.”

Always remember, there is hope with God. I’m Andrew Palau.

“You will do more than restore the people of Israel to me. I will make you a light to the Gentiles, and you will bring my salvation to the ends of the earth.” Isaiah 49:6

Losing what you love?

The truth is: All will be lost. Everyone we love will one day die. Everything we possess will one day fall apart.

This is true, but it’s not the end of our story.

There is another truth that offers hope. There is ONE who did lose all things, so that we could one day gain all things. And that we could live today with hope, free of fear.

Jesus lost everything… He offered up His very life. Yet, He didn’t stay dead. Jesus overcame death. And He says these words to us from the book of John.

He says, “Because I live, you also will live.”

Wow, what an offer!

Do you believe this?

Always remember, there is hope with God.

Maybe to your family or to society, or even to God? Have you ever wondered, “Am I good enough? Do I measure up? Will I EVER be good enough?”

In the Bible, it says that through Jesus, there’s no longer Jew or Gentile, slave or free, male or female. We’re all one in Christ.

God doesn’t look at your title, your job, your past, or where you’re from. He looks at your heart—and He’s not looking for perfection! Through Jesus, He welcomes all who are willing to follow Him. Are you willing?

Just pray, “Jesus, I want to know that I am accepted by You. Will You please forgive me? Thank You for paying the penalty I should have paid to make things right between us. Please meet me with Your love. And thank You. In Jesus’ name, amen.”

Always remember, there is hope with God. I’m Andrew Palau.

Some of us carry invisible walls inside. Pain, fear, or past mistakes block us from where we had hoped our lives would go.

But there’s hope. The Bible says…

Through Jesus, we who were far away have been brought near. He is our peace. He tore down the wall that kept us apart from God and from each other.

Jesus came to bring peace—not just between people, but a deep, abiding peace in the most hidden places of your soul.

If you’re longing for life that is truly life, there is a way. Jesus made the way and He made it for you.

Pray to Him, say, “Jesus, I’ve been far away, but I come to you now. I want to come close. Please forgive me, bring me peace and the help that I need to follow You. In Jesus’ name, amen.”

Always remember, there is hope with God.
