A Thankful Prayer

 

Dear God,

Thank you for your amazing power and work in our lives, thank you for your goodness and for your blessings over us. Thank you that you are able to bring hope through even the toughest of times, strengthening us for your purposes … Forgive us for when we don’t thank you enough, for who you are, for all that you do, for all that you’ve given. Help us to set our eyes and our hearts on you afresh. Renew our spirits, fill us with your peace and joy. We love you and we need you, this day and every day … In Jesus’ Name, Amen. 

The Lord Is My Strength

 “The Sovereign Lord is my strength;”

Habakkuk 3:19

“When nothing makes sense, and when troubles seem more than you can bear, remember God gives strength.  Take your eyes off your difficulties and look to God.

God’s people need to live in the strength of his Spirit, confident in his ultimate victory over evil.

God is alive and in control of the world and its events.  We cannot see all that God is doing, and we cannot see all that God will do.  But we can be assured that he is God and will do what is right.  Knowing this can give us confidence and hope in a confusing world.”
