Respite For the Weary
…and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.
Matthew 28: 20
O Immanuel,
Thank You for Your eternal presence. Help my children to embrace this truth with their whole heart. May they talk to You morning, noon, and night. May they be still enough to hear You - Your words of peace, Your calm sweet delight in their days.
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.
