Devotional Thoughts for Friday (5/29)
+++Sent Beyond Locked Doors+++
The same breath that calms fears also propels us into the world’s chaos. Resurrection isn’t a hiding place but a launchpad—the disciples moved from a locked room to public squares, markets, and foreign roads. Our commission isn’t to preserve comfort but to carry peace into places where hope feels fragile. [45:54]

Read John 20:21–22

Reflection: What “door” have you been hesitating to walk through—a hard conversation, a serving opportunity, a bold stand? How might the Spirit’s breath at your back change your next step?

Devotional Thoughts for Thursday (5/28)
+++Gifts Differing, Purpose One+++
Like bubbles—each unique yet part of the same breath—the Spirit distributes diverse gifts for one mission. No gift is too small, no story irrelevant. The elderly’s wisdom and the child’s wonder, the artist’s vision and the caregiver’s hands all float upward, declaring God’s love in their own shape. [54:49]

Read 1 Corinthians 12:4–6

Reflection: What “unlikely” gift in yourself or others (patience, humor, listening) might the Spirit want to use beyond the church walls? How can you release it rather than compare it?
