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!
Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord. He is like a tree planted by water who sends out its roots by the stream, and does not fear when the heat comes, for its leaves remain green, and is not anxious in the year of drought, for it does not cease to bear fruit. Jeremiah 17: 7-8
Dear Lord,
Renew our trust in you today. May we lean in fully to your endless strength and your intentional love. Like a tree, plant us deep by your living water so that when we send out our roots by faith, they grow strong , unwavering and secure. As a result, may we bear your fruit even in (and mostly in) the hardest of circumstances. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
