Respite For the Weary
Peter said to Jesus, "Lord, It is good for us to be here. If you wish, I will put up three shelters - one for You, one for Moses and one for Elijah." While he was speaking a bright cloud enveloped them, and a voice from the cloud said, "This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well-pleased. Listen to Him!"
Matthew 17: 4-5
Dear Heavenly Father,
Thank You for sending Your one and only son to be the one and only Savior of the world. I pray my children would worship You alone as God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. Give them ears to hear Your voice, a mind to understand Your words, and a heart to obey Your commands.
But what does it matter? The important thing is that in every way, whether from false motives or true, Christ is preached. And because of this I rejoice. Philippians 1:18
Dear Lord God,
Thank you for the truth that you can use us in spite of us! You are perfect, we are NOT. Forgive us when our motives are skewed...when we focus on the wrong target. In your lovingkindness, re-fix our gaze on you, Lord Jesus. Become both our motivation and ambition all over again, for the glory of your Name. Amen.
