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.
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.
