(Short post today!) 🙂
It’s Monday. Another Monday. You know that. I know that. But at least for me, there’s something else in the air today — hope, potential, promise, and a little bit of sun.
Mondays can get us down. In some seasons, life feels like an endless chain of nothing but Mondays.
For students, it can feel like school will never end. But in reality, summer is just around the corner.
How do we know that summer is coming? Because it has always followed through. Year after year, summer always returns. We students know we can depend on it to come back again.
You know who is even more dependable? God. He has always kept his promises and always will.
In Micah 5:2, He promised that a ruler “whose coming forth is from of old” would be born would be born in Bethlehem. He kept that promise by sending Jesus.
And there are so many other examples. The temple’s destruction, His death, His resurrection, the list goes on and on.
God has never let us down. And you know what else he promises? He will never forsake you. (Hebrews 13:5-6.) And He’s coming back. (Revelations 22:20.) Soon.
Summer comes every year. It’s dependable. God is even more dependable. He’s fulfilled so many promises, and keeps the promise that He will be with you, every single day. So we can know for sure that He is coming back. Who knows? The time might just be around the corner!
It’s Monday today. But students, let’s not give up. Let’s keep persevering, finish strong, summer’s almost here!
Christians, do the same. 😉

What a wonderful reminder that even while going through trials we have a wonderful future planned for us that is eternal!
Yep! 🙂
Great reminder! You appear to have a gift for exhortation/devotional-style writing. =)
Thanks!
