Joni and Friends A Moment with Joni
Salvation is Nearer
By Joni Eareckson Tada
Daily Devotional Message
Our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed.
Romans 13:11b

My friend Natalie recently lost her father. She is grieving and misses him terribly. As weeks fly by, she’s fighting hard to remember his voice, smile and even his face. “I’m living in the past,” she cried. I sent her comfort from Romans 13:11, “Our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed.” She loved that! “Joni,” she said, “I need to stop thinking that every day is taking me further away from my precious dad. Now, I see that every day is taking us closer to the time when we will actually be together again.” She’s right. If you recently lost a loved one, it is painful to live these few chapters apart from them. But hold fast to Romans 13:11, for your story with that special one is eternal! Take courage, have heart. Heaven and the complete fulfillment of God’s kingdom is a lot nearer now than it was yesterday.
