Mason Lightfoot's essay on 'Jesus and My Faith' is today's devotion:
What does my faith mean to me?
Mason Lightfoot
Bible Verse, Deuteronomy 3.16 – Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD you God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.
My faith is important to me in such ways that I know I will always have the Lord by my side in and all I do. I know the Lord will help me with my every day choices. With that I hope and pray that I make the right decisions even when my parents or other adults are not around.
I will ask him to guide me through my high school years to become the citizen I know I can be. I know there will be times I may not do exactly what I should, but I know in prayer I will be forgiven as long as I am truly sorry.
In the recent world events one might question our Lord’s doings but I know he is right next to me and my family to help us through these challenges. As I am writing this I hope and pray that I have and will be a good disciple and teach others of the Lord’s wonderful doings.
I am excited to become a larger part of the church family and will do my best to continue my faith.
