Daily Devotional: Our Father Knows Best
By Mark Waldrop

Luke 24:39 “Look at my hands and my feet. It is I myself! Touch me and see; a ghost does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have.”

After His resurrection, Jesus appeared to His disciples, offering proof of His physical presence—His hands, His feet, His very real body. He knew their doubts and fears, and He met them where they were, offering reassurance and solid evidence of His victory over death. In this moment, Jesus showed that He was not just a spiritual presence but alive in the flesh, fulfilling every promise He had made.

Our Father knows best, even in our moments of doubt. He understands our need for reassurance and meets us with the truth of His presence. Like the disciples, we sometimes wrestle with questions or uncertainties in our faith. Yet Jesus invites us to see and believe—He is real, and His promises are true. His love is tangible, His sacrifice complete, and His victory over death certain.

Today, reflect on the reality of Christ’s resurrection and the personal invitation He extends to you. No matter what doubts or struggles you face, Jesus offers the assurance of His presence and the reality of His love. He meets us in our fears, proving that He is alive and with us always.

Trust that your Father knows best. He has given us every reason to believe, and He invites us to touch and see that He is alive and working in our lives today.

Prayer: 
Lord, thank You for the assurance of Your resurrection and Your constant presence in my life. Help me to trust You fully, even when doubts arise, and remind me that You are always near. Amen.
