Friend, Mark 9:23 is one of those verses that makes you sit up a little straighter when you hear it. Jesus said, “If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.” Now that’s not just a Sunday-morning verse—it’s a Monday-through-Saturday promise.

Life has a way of piling up doubts, stacking fears, and whispering lies that say, “You’ll never get past this. You’ll never see change. You’ll never make it through.” But Jesus steps into the middle of all that noise and says, “If you’ll believe Me, if you’ll trust Me, nothing is off the table.”

Faith doesn’t mean you won’t face mountains—it just means mountains don’t get the last word. Faith doesn’t mean the storm isn’t real—it means you’ve got a Savior who can speak peace to the storm.

So whatever you’re facing today, let this truth settle down deep in your soul: With Jesus, there is no “impossible.” There is no door too locked, no heart too hard, no sin too deep, and no dream too far gone.

Hold on to that. Walk in that. And remember—faith is not you holding on to God as much as it is God holding on to you. And if He’s holding you, friend, you’re right where you need to be.

Luke 16:10 says, “He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much.”

Friend, that’s a front-porch kind of truth right there. Jesus is reminding us that the way we handle the small stuff determines whether we’re ready for the big stuff. You can’t expect God to hand you the keys to the kingdom if you won’t even be responsible with the spare change in your pocket.

Think about it—faithfulness isn’t flashy. It’s showing up on time. It’s doing what you said you’d do. It’s being honest when nobody’s watching. It’s putting your heart into folding laundry, mowing the yard, or serving a neighbor. The world may not notice those little things, but heaven does. And God says if you can be trusted in the “least,” He’ll open doors for the “much.”

So don’t despise the small beginnings. Don’t roll your eyes at the daily grind. Every ordinary task is an opportunity to live out extraordinary faithfulness. Be faithful with today’s little things, and tomorrow’s bigger blessings will find you ready.

Stay steady, friend. Because God can take your “least” and make it much.

Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus. Philippians 2:5 is more than just a verse—it’s a challenge. Paul is saying: don’t just think like the world, learn to think like Jesus. Now that’s a tall order, because our natural minds want to race toward pride, anger, and selfishness. But the mind of Christ leans toward humility, compassion, and obedience.

Here’s the good news: God doesn’t ask us to do this on our own. He gives us His Spirit to reshape the way we think. Every day, you and I get the choice—will I let my mind be filled with worry, fear, or selfish ambition? Or will I surrender my thoughts and say, “Lord, renew my mind so I can reflect Jesus today”?

When you start to think like Jesus, you begin to love like Jesus. You begin to forgive like Jesus. And you begin to live with the peace of Jesus. So today, don’t just let your mind wander—invite the mind of Christ to take over. It’ll change your perspective, your attitude, and your whole life.
