'My Lord and My God' - John 20:26-28

Eight days [after Jesus appeared to the disciples when ### was absent,] the disciples were together again, and this time ### was with them. The doors were locked; but suddenly, as before, Jesus was standing among them. "Peace be with you," he said. Then he said to ###, "Put your finger here, and look at my hands. Put your hand into the wound in my side. Don't be faithless any longer. Believe!"

"My Lord and my God!" ### exclaimed.

John 20:26-28 NLT

Key Thought​


What is our reaction to the resurrected Lord? Who are we to understand Jesus to be? What is his role in our lives? ### gives us the words and the attitude, "My Lord and my God!" Now it is our turn to make those words true in our own lives!

Today's Prayer​


Lord God Almighty, who came in human flesh as Jesus, I praise you for your love, mercy, power, and grace. I bow down before you and offer you my life, my future, and my time to your glory. Amen.

It is funny half the time when I think of seeing Jesus and getting to be in the very same room with Him my first instinct is to hit the floor at His feet and then I think THE JOY I would be feeling would overtake me and I would be jumping around laughing and crying all at the same time. I pray whatever happens it will be pleasing to my Lord in His precious Name. Amen.
