SPRING FORTH NOW 2025

Friday, June 27, 2025

 For to be sure, he was crucified in weakness, yet he lives by God’s power. Likewise, we are weak in him, yet by God’s power we will live with him in our dealing with you.  Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you—unless, of course, you fail the test?  And I trust that you will discover that we have not failed the test.

II Corinthians 13:4-6 (NIV)

Seeking, Knocking, and Asking are not just outward movements—they invite us inward to examine our hearts and lean into God’s power in our weakness. Paul reminds us that just as Christ’s apparent weakness led to resurrection power, so too can our limitations become spaces where God shows up strongest. When we seek Him honestly, God provides Hidden Manna—a deeper awareness of His presence within us and strength that’s made perfect in our surrender. Asking hard questions about our faith doesn’t weaken us—it refines us. Christ in us is not a distant hope but a present power, always available to those who reach for it with humility. Today, as you examine yourself and Knock on heaven’s door, remember that God’s strength is already alive within you, quietly sustaining and guiding you every step of the way.
