You were never meant to run this race alone. When life feels heavy and you're tempted to push through in silence, remember—God surrounded you with a great cloud of witnesses. The church isn’t an audience; it’s a family that lifts you up, points you back to Jesus, and runs beside you with endurance. Step into community, serve with love, and keep your eyes on Christ—the source and perfecter of your faith.

God loves to work through ordinary people doing extraordinary things. In Mark 2, four friends tore through a roof to bring someone to Jesus—and a miracle happened. What if God wants to do the same through you today? You don’t need perfect faith, just a willing heart. Show up. Love someone enough to carry them to Jesus. When you believe God can work through your ordinary life, He turns it into something extraordinary.

What would you do if you knew you couldn’t fail? Faith doesn’t grow in the safety of the shore—it grows when you step out of the boat. Like Peter on the water, you’ll never experience God’s power by clinging to what feels secure. Playing it safe may protect you from storms, but it also keeps you from miracles. Jesus is calling you to trust Him, to take that next step, and discover that you were made for more than comfort—you were made for courage.
