Respite For the Weary
But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.
I Peter 2:9
King Eternal,
Only by Your grace my children are Your chosen people. Remind and convict their hearts that they are not their own - that they belong to you. May they be full of wonder at the miracle which You performed in each of them - drawing them out of darkness into Your marvelous light!
Behold, I go forward and he is not there, and backward, but I do not perceive him; on the left hand when he is working, I do not behold him; he turns to the right hand, but i do not see him. But he knows the way that i take; when he has tried me, I shall come out as gold. Job 23:8-10
Dear Lord,
In times of trouble, remind us that you are not absent even when it seems like it. May we say and see with eyes of faith that you are present; you are working; you are refining; and you are good. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
