Mid-Week Encouragement February 5th, 2025
In the Garden of Eden, Adam was given a chance—a moment to step forward, to confess, to seek mercy. When God asked, “Where are you?” it wasn’t because He didn’t know where Adam was, but because He was inviting Adam to come out of hiding, to face his failure, and to receive grace. But instead of owning his mistake and facing an uncomfortable moment, Adam hid. He blamed. He ran from the very One who could restore him.
How often do we do the same? When we face hardship, shame, or uncomfortable situations, our instinct is to retreat—to avoid, to blame, to pretend it isn’t happening. But running from God or from life’s challenges doesn’t bring healing. Spiritual growth happens when we step into the light, admit where we’ve fallen, and trust God to meet us with His mercy.
God doesn’t ask us where we are to condemn us but to call us back. He wants us to grow, to learn, and to rise stronger than before. Don’t let fear or shame keep you from stepping forward. The road to redemption, healing, and transformation begins when we stop running and start trusting.
