Respite For the Weary
Jesus answered and said to him, "If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him, and make Our abode with him."
John 14: 23
Dear Lord and Savior,
I pray my children will understand that genuine LOVE for You requires whole-hearted obedience TO YOU. As they walk in obedience, open their eyes to YOUR LOVE FOR THEM - in Your word and in Your ways. Thank You that You desire to live in their hearts. I pray that You will actively shine through them as they die to self, and live for You.
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.
