Respite For the Weary
For the love of Christ controls us, having concluded this, that one died for all. Therefore all died; and He died for all, that they should no longer live for themselves, but for Him who died and rose again on their behalf. therefore from now on we recognize no man according to the flesh; even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know Him thus no longer. Therefore if any man is in Christ, he is a new creature: the old things passed away; behead, new things have come!
II Corinthians 5: 14-17
Dear Lord God,
It is my greatest heart's desire for Your powerful love to control the hearts of my children. Give them a humbled willingness to die to themselves daily, and then to LIVE with Your Spirit reigning inside each of them. Help them cling to the beautiful truth that old things have passed away; and yes, new things have come! Cause my children to WALK in this newness of life.
...Know therefore today, and lay it in your heart, that the Lord your God in heaven above and on the earth beneath, there is no other. Deuteronomy 4:39
Dear Lord,
Help us to know today and every day, you alone are God. Nothing came into being without you, and nothing will transpire without your consent. When we have this fundamental truth in place, we also have your abiding peace. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
