Day 1: The Resurrection - Our Living Hope Reading: John 20:1-18  

Devotional: The empty tomb is more than just a historical event—it's the foundation of our faith and hope. Mary Magdalene's encounter with the risen Christ reminds us that Jesus is alive and personally involved in our lives. Just as He called Mary by name, He calls each of us. Today, reflect on how the reality of the resurrection impacts your daily life. How does knowing that Jesus is alive change your perspective on your challenges, fears, and future? Take time to listen for His voice in prayer, trusting that He knows you by name and is present in every circumstance.

Day 2: From Doubt to Faith Reading: John 20:24-29 

Devotional: Thomas's journey from skepticism to profound faith challenges us to examine our own doubts and beliefs. Like Thomas, we may sometimes struggle to believe without seeing. Yet Jesus meets us in our uncertainty with patience and evidence of His love. Consider areas in your life where doubt may be hindering your faith. Bring these honestly before God, asking Him to strengthen your trust. Remember Jesus' words: "Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed." How can you cultivate a faith that goes beyond physical sight today?



Day 3: The Peace of Christ Reading: John 20:19-23 

Devotional: In a locked room filled with fear, Jesus appeared to His disciples with a powerful greeting: "Peace be with you." This peace—shalom in Hebrew—is more than the absence of conflict; it's a complete well-being that comes from being right with God. In what areas of your life do you need Christ's peace today? Whether facing external pressures or internal turmoil, invite Jesus into those locked rooms of your heart. His peace can transcend circumstances, guarding your heart and mind. How can you be an agent of Christ's peace to others in your sphere of influence?



Day 4: Commissioned with Purpose Reading: Matthew 28:16-20 

Devotional: The Great Commission reminds us that our faith is not meant to be passive or self-focused. Jesus calls us to actively participate in His mission of making disciples. This calling gives our lives profound purpose and meaning. Reflect on how you're currently living out this commission in your daily life. Are there areas where you feel God calling you to step out in faith to share His love? Remember, Jesus promises His presence as we go—we're never alone in this mission. Ask God for opportunities to be His witness today, whether through words or actions.



Day 5: Walking by Faith, Not by Sight Reading: 2 Corinthians 5:6-10

Devotional: Paul's words challenge us to live with an eternal perspective, trusting in realities we cannot yet see. This requires courage and conviction, especially in a world that often demands tangible proof. Consider areas in your life where you're being called to walk by faith rather than sight. It might be in relationships, career decisions, or personal struggles. How can you demonstrate trust in God's unseen workings today? Remember that our current limitations don't diminish God's reality or power. Ask God to strengthen your spiritual vision, helping you to perceive His presence and guidance in both the extraordinary and the everyday moments of life.
