The benefits to being a person of faith are many, but it isn’t an easy life. When our faith seems fragile, feel like we’re faking it, that we failed in some way spiritually, how do we pick up the pieces and persevere? The beautiful benediction found at the end of the book of Jude gives us all we need.

The dominant theme in this artistically elegant Psalm–the longest chapter in the Bible–is God’s word. By treasuring God’s word, especially in the face of suffering and sorrow, and allowing it to illuminate our life, we discover the path of true meaning and eternal happiness.

Finding our way in life is like finding our way through the Bible: both can feel overwhelming. Jesus shows us how to navigate both and and discover enduring freedom.
