Respite For the Weary
O afflicted one, storm-tossed, and not comforted, behold, I will set your stones in antimony, and your foundations I will lay in sapphires. Moreover, I will make your battlements of rubies, and your gates of crystal, and your entire wall of precious stones. And your sons will be taught of the Lord; and the well-being of your sons will be great.
Isaiah 54: 11-13
O God of Peace,
Please come in and steady the hearts of my children when they are weary, confused, sad, or lonely. Rebuild their faith in You, I pray. Make them beautifully strong once again, causing them to shine Your radiance into this dark world. Help them to remember nothing is impossible with You, O God.
And Simon answered, "Master, we toiled all night and took nothing! But at your word I will let down the nets." Luke5:5
Dear Lord,
When we know what it is that you have asked us to do, help us to do it with a submissive spirit, even if it doesn't make sense. Then, may we have the opportunity in your good time, to stand back and marvel at your wondrous work. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
