—Zechariah 8:1-8, 20-23
Today’s passage reminds me of a strong principle of God: He is faithful. Too often, I find myself worried and working hard to prove my worth to God. I am fully and absolutely aware that Christ is my Salvation and that it is a gift I did not and cannot earn. But I still catch myself anxious that I need to prove to God that He did not make a mistake in loving me. Verse 8 of today’s reading reminds me that I can rest in God. I believe we need not only not to be anxious about serving God, but that we are so much more efficient if we rest in Him and this promise that He is faithful and righteous to us.
