Daily Reflection: Faith and Obedience Fulfill God’s Plan in Our Lives
Today's readings from 2 Samuel 7:4-5a,12-14a,16, Romans 4:13,16-18,22, and Matthew 1:16,18-21,24a teach us a powerful lesson: God’s promises are fulfilled through faith and obedience.
God promised David that his descendants would establish an everlasting kingdom. This promise was fulfilled in Jesus, who was born from David’s lineage. Abraham also received God’s promise—not because of the law but because of his unwavering faith.
In the Gospel, Joseph faced a difficult situation. He discovered that Mary was pregnant before they lived together. But when the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, he obeyed without hesitation. He embraced his role in God’s divine plan, trusting in His wisdom.
Like Abraham, David, and Joseph, we are called to trust God’s plan even when we do not fully understand it. When we respond with faith and obedience, we allow His will to be fulfilled in our lives.
Prayer
Faithful God, help me to trust in Your plans even when they seem unclear. Teach me to be obedient like Abraham, David, and Joseph, so that Your will may be fulfilled in my life. Amen.
