“And this is what he promised us, eternal life.”

[1 John 2:25 NIV]

Devotional

Life on earth is fleeting, filled with both beauty and brokenness. Yet God gives us a promise that reaches beyond the limits of time: eternal life through His Son, Jesus Christ. This is not only a future hope; it begins the moment we place our trust in Him. Eternal life means living in relationship with God now and forever, secure in His love.

John reminds believers that God’s promise is sure. The world offers temporary pleasures and fragile assurances, but God’s word never fails. Eternal life is not earned by effort or good deeds; it is a gift of grace. When we abide in Christ, we experience a peace and confidence that nothing in this world can take away.

Even when life feels uncertain, this promise anchors us. Eternal life means we are never alone and never without purpose. We belong to God, and our future is safe in His hands. Let this truth fill you with hope and steady your heart today.

Reflection

God has promised me eternal life through Jesus. No matter what I face today, I can rest knowing my life is secure in Him and my eternity is assured.

Prayer

Father, thank You for the gift of eternal life in Christ. Help me live each day with confidence in Your promise and joy in Your presence. Strengthen my faith to hold fast to You.
