Friends,

Have you not heard the saying that you need to be authentic in your faith? The call to authenticity is radical and refreshing in a world that often rewards appearances and performance. To be authentic in your faith is to be real before God, to come as you are—not as you think you ought to be.

Jesus Christ never demanded perfection before offering His Love. He sought honest hearts, even if they were broken. Think of the tax collector who beat his chest and cried, “Have mercy on me, a sinner.” That man went home justified, not because he was flawless but because he was authentic.

When we live out our faith, we sincerely open ourselves to all-around blessings—material, spiritual, emotional, and relational. Authentic faith invites the presence of the Holy Spirit, who transforms us from within and empowers us to live with purpose and peace.

So, I urge you to strip away the masks and let your faith be genuine. For in that authenticity, you will find the fullness of God’s grace.

JESUS IS LORD
