Experience something sacred by opening your Bible while allowing your eyes to settle on the red words. Before analysis or commentary, take a breath. These are the words Jesus spoke while living among tired, broken people who weren’t so different from us.
The red words rise above the noise of daily life with surprising simplicity.
Love.
Forgive.
Follow.
Trust.
Across parables, conversations, and quiet moments, they remain steady and consistent.
Love God.
Love others.
Do not be afraid.
The Kingdom is near.
The more time spent with the red words, the more recognizable Jesus becomes as the kind, and intentional man he was, as well as the loving Lord and Savior he will forever be. Familiarity breeds closeness, and what once felt ancient is present and real.
Eventually, the red words will refuse to stay on the page, shaping daily choices, softening conversations, and stretching patience. Studying them is less about knowledge and more about a deep healing of the heart.
Don’t admire these words from a distance or neatly underline them and close your Bible. and left behind. Read them. Live them. Cherish Them. Rejoice in them, while using them as a steady guide for the soul in a noisy world.
Lord for Your word, we give thanks. Today, tomorrow, and always, please guide us through this crazy world. Please comfort and heal us as, as you guide us on our way back home to you.
Now, go read your Bible.
More tomorrow.
