Dear Lord,
Help us to remember your power. You own all things, and you operate all things. The more we realize who you are, the more our faith will grow, and then the more we can move forward in what you are calling us to do. You are Commander of all nature. Please be the Commander of our hearts. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
