Beyond Comfortable Answers

Devotional

It’s human nature to seek comfortable answers that align with what we already believe or want to hear. We might scroll through countless articles until we find one that confirms our existing views. But the Holy Spirit often challenges our comfortable assumptions, leading us to deeper truth. While this might feel uncomfortable at times, it’s through this divine guidance that we grow in faith and understanding.

Bible Verse

“When the day of Pentecost arrived, they were all together in one place. And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like a mighty rushing wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting.” – Acts 2:1-2

Reflection Question

What uncomfortable truths might the Holy Spirit be trying to show you that you’ve been resistant to accepting?

Quote 

Many times we think, okay, I’m just going to figure it out, I’m going to go on my own. Or we look for a different source that is, well, more comfortable to us, right? We want to hear what we want to hear, we want to know what we want to know.

Prayer

Holy Spirit, give me the courage to embrace Your truth, even when it challenges my comfort zone. Help me grow through Your guidance. Amen.
