WEDNESDAY WITH LORD JESUS

Grace and peace to you in the Name of Lord Jesus Christ!
Dear Bretheren in Christ,

"Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’? But I want you to know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins…” — Matthew 9:5–6

It's easy to say things—“I love you,” “I forgive you,” “I care”—but words alone do not prove the presence of true love, care, or forgiveness. Jesus didn’t just speak forgiveness; He demonstrated it with power, healing a paralyzed man. His actions confirmed the truth and authority of His words.

In the same way, we may claim to love God or others, but unless that love is seen in acts of compassion, sharing, reconciliation, and service, our words ring hollow. Love is not a feeling to be admired—it is a choice to be lived out.
Let your love walk as your words talk.

Lord Jesus,
You are not only the Word made flesh but also the truth in action. Help us to love not in word only, but in deed and in truth. Teach us to reflect Your heart by the way we care, forgive, and share. May our actions echo Your grace and make our faith visible to the world. In Your name, Amen.
Prayerful regards,
