Daily Devotional for Mar 27, 2026

Our presence matters to each other. 🤝 In Philippians 1, Paul sits in a prison cell and does the math. He admits he'd rather just depart and be with Christ. But then he thinks of his community and writes, "to remain in the flesh is more necessary for you." He chooses continued hardship because his people need him. It’s an act of profound solidarity. As Holy Week approaches, we remember Jesus making a similar choice for us. Eyes open. Facing forward.
