Feel like you need to sort yourself out before you come back to God?

The good news is that God is not standing at a distance waiting for you to get into a better mood.

In Nehemiah 9:19-20, we see God continue to care for his people even while they grumble and struggle. His mercy does not depend on us having a good day. When anger, fear or exhaustion come to the surface, God sees the deeper need beneath the noise and meets us there with grace.

Today, we discover why honesty with God is not the opposite of faith, and how his patience can help us become gentler with ourselves and with the people around us.

*Subscribe for a new 5-minute Christian devotional every day* and take a few quiet minutes to read Scripture, reflect, pray and take one simple step of faith.
