Respite For the Weary
And after you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ will Himself perfect, confirm, strengthen, and establish you.
I Peter 5:10
Dear God of Grace,
(I ask that) WHEN the inevitable trials of suffering and loss are experienced by each of my children in their lifetime, THEY WOULD CLING TO YOU. Through their various struggles, make them STRONGER in their faith on this earth, while keeping ETERNITY in their heart and mind.
My times are in Your hands. Psalm 31:15
Dear Lord,
You are the Beginning and the End. As we look into this New Year, may we not waste the blessing of time you have given us to live; but rather, help us to cherish our days and number them each as a gift, stepping ever forward with your love and joy and peace. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
