Respite For the Weary
For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not turn your freedom into an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another. for the whole law is fulfilled in one word, in the statement, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."
Galatians 5: 13-14
Dear Master,
Help my children to know that freedom is found in You alone. Fill their hearts with Your love, and give them the desire to portray this love to others by serving them. Open their eyes to the needs of those around them.
The Lord is a stronghold for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble. And those who know your name put their trust in you; for you, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek you. Psalm 9:9-10
Dear Lord,
May you be our only stronghold! Everything else fails! Help us to release our tight grip on what we think is best and then make a deliberate choice to hold onto your trustworthy promises, especially in difficult times. Cause us to cling to you with hope, both for the present moment and for the future. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
