Monday 7.7.25 – John 21:1–14 Read John 21:1-14 here. Even after denying Jesus three times, Peter returned to fishing. Perhaps he thought he had disqualified himself. But then Jesus appeared—again at the lake—and repeated the miracle. Once more, empty nets became overflowing. It wasn’t just breakfast Jesus served—it was grace, a fresh start, and a reminder that failure isn't the end. Where do you need a second chance today? What failure is Jesus meeting you in, ready to redeem it with grace? Reflect: If you were Peter, how would you feel seeing Jesus again after your failure? Pray: God of grace, thank you for never giving up on me. Restore what is broken in me and help me begin again. Amen.
Tuesday, July 15 – When You Pass Through the Waters Read Isaiah 43:1–2 here. Reflection: “You are mine,” God says. He doesn’t promise we’ll avoid deep waters, but He promises we’ll never face them alone. When we’re overwhelmed, His presence is our rescue. Application: Name a “deep water” moment in your life. How might God have been present even there? Prayer: Lord, remind me You walk with me through fire and flood. Amen.
