Lord, in this broken and ever-changing world, people are searching for relevance. Those who are committed to following You find their meaning and purpose in life in You. Romans chapter six details how You redeemed us from “slaves to sin” and set us free to be “slaves of righteousness.” We have gone from being outside the Kingdom of God and Your grace to feasting at Your table as Your son or daughter. You have made us heirs of all Your promises through Jesus Christ. Pity those poor souls trying to find relevance without You. The world frustrates itself, looking for relevance with every new fad or ideology. You wait patiently, watching as their virtue-signaling through “wokeism” falls far short of what they expected, disappointed their effort do not bring meaning to their existence. They will twist themselves into a pretzel trying to find meaning before looking to You. They need redemption. You stand by, arms open, waiting for them to run to you. Knowing that my identity, my worth, my salvation comes from You alone, Lord God, keeps me grounded and humbled, aware everything I have comes from You.
Finding meaning, purpose and true life in You, Lord Jesus. Amen.
