Respite For the Weary
I took you from the ends of the earth, from its farthest corners I called you. I said, "You are my servant," I have chosen you not rejected you. so, do not fear, for I am with you; for I am your God. I will strengthen and help you: I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
Isaiah 41: 9-10
Dear Ruler of the World,
Help my children recognize their VALUE in Christ - that You have CHOSEN them, and have an ASSIGNMENT for them while on this earth. Bind fear from their hearts, make them strong in YOU. Cause them to press forward, knowing that You are holding their hand.
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.
Galatians 5: 22-23
Dear Helper,
I praise You for the wonderful truth that You are ALWAYS stronger than our flesh. Please pour Your power into the hearts and minds of my children so that they can walk by Your Spirit, which is both freeing and beautiful. In their own circle of influence, I pray that each of them would exhibit YOUR love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.
The Lord is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him. Lamentations 3:25
Dear Lord,
When we are confused or dissatisfied with circumstances in life, cause us to reevaluate the source of our hope. You are the only hope that fills up; everything else is like water that drains from a cracked vessel. Bind us up in your love, and as we seek you, fill us up with your divine goodness. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
