We start by doing our part, planting small seeds of love and hope in our everyday lives. From wherever we are—imperfect, unsure, yet willing—we take the first step and trust that we can go far. Above us, a smile from heaven beams down, clear and bright, as if to say, “You’re not alone.” In that radiant moment, the Holy Spirit stirs hearts, lifts burdens, and sets souls aglow. And so, we shine, not just for ourselves, but for the world that needs a little more light.

Here are some statements of faith from the study of John 13 through 14.  Say them aloud, write them down, or simply reflect on them. May they uplift and empower you for a great July 4th weekend!

• I begin by doing my part, no matter how small, knowing love in action reflects the heart of Christ.
• I trust that where I am is where God can start, and with Him, I will go far.
• I receive each day as a smile from heaven—clear, bright, and full of grace.
• I walk in the light, led by truth, filled with peace not as the world gives, but as Jesus promised.
• The Holy Spirit moves through me—comforting, guiding, and empowering me to love as He loved.
• I am a vessel of light, and today, I choose to shine boldly for God’s glory.
