Respite For the Weary
For this reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance, godliness; and to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, love. For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
II Peter 1: 5-9
Dear Lord Jesus,
I praise You and thank You for the faith that each of my children possess in their heart. For faith in You is the foundation in which they can build upon. Give them a desire to build, I pray. Cause them to make every effort to add to their faith goodness, knowledge, self-control, godliness, perseverance, brotherly kindness, and love. Yes, Lord make them effective and productive as they grow in their knowledge of You.
So I will bless you as long as I live; in your name I will lift up my hands. My soul will be satisfied as with fat and rich food, and my mouth will praise you with joyful lips, when I remember you upon my bed, and meditate on you in the watches of the night; for you have been my help, and in the shadow of your wings I will sing for joy.
Psalm 63: 4-7
Dear Lord,
Turn our mind towards you morning, noon, and night! When we start to feel anxious, fill us with your words of hope and peace. "Fatten us up" with your rich and abundant truths! Nothing about you is unhealthy--you are pure and good and right--and we can feast on your word as much as we want! In Jesus' Name, Amen.
