Increasing intimacy with God
You will seek Me and find Me when you seek Me with all your heart.
- Jeremiah 29:13
Amid the challenges and tribulations we face, we discover true peace as we draw near to the presence of God. He calls us into an intimate relationship, where we can find comfort, wisdom, and unconditional love.
To increase our intimacy with God, we must begin by seeking His presence with all our heart. Just as a thirsty plant seeks water, we should long for the divine presence in our lives. As we devote ourselves to prayer and meditation on the Word, our hearts open to receive God’s transforming grace.
In our moments of silence before Him, we allow Him to speak to us, shaping our thoughts and directing our steps. It is in the stillness of our spirit that we hear His gentle voice guiding and comforting us.
Increasing intimacy with God is not just a calling, but a journey of continuous spiritual growth. As we draw closer to Him, we are transformed into His likeness, reflecting His love and grace to the world around us. May we seek God’s presence with all our heart and find in Him the fullness of life.
How to increase your intimacy with Him
- Sincere prayer, which strengthens the bond of trust in God.
- Study of the Bible, through which God reveals Himself to you.
- Cultivating moments of silence to hear God’s voice. When we are still, God speaks.
Prayer:
Lord, guide me in Your light, strengthen me in Your truth, and fill me with Your peace. May I live each day in intimacy with You, following Your ways and reflecting Your love to the world. Amen.

It is Jesus who saves
In the midst of the uncertainties and challenges of life, one truth remains unshakable: it is Jesus who saves. It is not by our own merit or by human works that we find redemption, but through the perfect sacrifice of Christ on the cross. In John 14:6, Jesus declared:
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
- John 14:6
This statement is not only an affirmation but also a promise of hope. Only in Jesus do we find the way to reconciliation with God, the truth that sets our minds free, and the abundant life that He offers us.
When we look at the world, we see many idols and false gods that people seek in an attempt to fill the emptiness in their hearts. However, none of them can offer the eternal salvation that only Jesus can provide. He is the only mediator between God and mankind, and His unconditional love reaches us wherever we are.
When we recognize our need for a Savior and place our faith in Jesus, we experience the inner transformation that only He can accomplish. He frees us from the weight of sin and gives us the assurance of eternal life by His side.
And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life.
- 1 John 5:11–13
Therefore, there is no other name under heaven by which we can be saved except the name of Jesus. He is the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. May we, with gratitude and humility, surrender our lives to Him, recognizing that only in Jesus do we find true peace, forgiveness, and salvation.
Jesus: the Savior!
• Seek a personal relationship with Jesus through daily prayer.
• Meditate on the Word of God to strengthen your faith.
• Share the love of Christ with others, testifying of His salvation.
Prayer
Jesus, I thank You for my salvation. I am grateful for Your goodness and Your sublime love. You are the only way to eternal life. Amen.

The day of the change
In the hearts that seek the truth, there is a deep longing for change. With every sunrise comes the promise of a new day, full of possibilities. Every day is the “day of change,” when the light of hope shines upon those who seek transformation in Christ.
In the Bible, we find this passage in 2 Corinthians 5:17:
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!
- 2 Corinthians 5:17
This verse is the testimony of the redeeming work of God, who invites us to abandon the old and embrace the new through faith.
On the “day of change,” we are called to leave behind the chains of the past, the fears that imprison us, and the sins that oppress us. It is the moment to open our arms to divine grace, which frees us and renews us in love.
On this day, hearts fill with gratitude for the mercy of God, who grants us the opportunity to begin again. It is the moment to look forward with faith, trusting that the Creator is guiding every step, transforming our weaknesses into strength and our tears into joy.
May on this “day of change” we open our hearts to the light of Christ, allowing Him to lead us toward a future full of hope and purpose. May every sunrise be a reminder of the transforming power of divine love, which enables us to live an abundant life in His presence.
It is the day of change!
- Pray daily, seeking divine guidance and strength for personal change.
- Study the Word of God to receive constant direction and inspiration.
- Practice forgiveness, release resentment, and embrace reconciliation in love.
Prayer:
Lord, grant me the wisdom to embrace change with courage. Strengthen my faith to face challenges with confidence in You. May Your grace guide me in every step, transforming my weaknesses into strength. Enable me to forgive and to love as You love. May this moment of change be a testimony of Your redeeming power in my life. Amen.
