The old covenant, which was given to the people of Israel in the Old Testament, was never meant to save anyone, so God gave us the new covenant.

Have you ever experienced burnout or frustration when serving the LORD's Church? Even the prophet Elijah struggled with this after confronting and removing the prophets of the false god Baal. But we must remember that our work in the LORD is never in vain.

Be confident that the LORD hears your prayers because He loves you and made (and already kept) a promise to save you. Embrace God's Word and share the good news with others out of love and thankfulness.

Counting the cost of your discipleship looks like using your Christian freedom to proclaim the good news to others, to glorify God by showing forgiveness, by paying the debt of others, and by being confident in God's grace.

We are reminded of the gifts given by God's grace -- not just Hope, Peace, Joy, and Love, but gifts that supply our every need -- which we then share with others.
