Sunday on Monday - February 9th, 2026
Yesterday, we were reminded of a truth that can reshape how we live every day if we are willing to let it sink in.
Romans 5:6–11 tells us that God did not wait for us to improve, understand, or clean ourselves up. While we were still weak, still sinners, and still enemies, Christ died for us. God loved us at our worst, not our best. And He did not do it by lowering the standard. He did it by paying the cost Himself.
That truth matters on this Monday morning.
Many of us live with a quiet fear that God’s love is fragile, that it depends on our performance, our consistency, or how well we are doing spiritually. But Paul’s message is clear. If God loved us when we were completely unable and opposed to Him, our weakness now does not undo His love. A love that began there will not fail us here.
So as you step into this week, let the gospel shape you.
- In your head, remember that God’s love is proven at the cross, not measured by your performance.
- In your heart, rest in the assurance that you are not loved reluctantly or conditionally.
- In your hands, choose to love others the way you have been loved, even when it is difficult.
In a culture where love is confused with approval, the gospel shows us how to love people without compromising our faith.
And as Paul reminds us, “More than that, we rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.” May that joy follow you into your conversations, your decisions, and your relationships this week.
