Psalm 66:20 “Blessed be God, who has not turned away my prayer, Nor His mercy from me!
Dear God,
Oh how I need the rest and peace of Your presence this morning. Please forgive me for the unchristian way I can treat other people at times, for my lack of spiritual wisdom and for my dealing with people that reveals a critical spirit as well as a lack of a generous spirit toward others.
Thank You that You never turn away from my prayers and Your mercy is ever extended toward me.
I am grateful for the Scriptural writings of the prophets and Your other Godly men that reveal their battles, along with their trusting in You throughout, and for the ways they were delivered physically and spiritually.
I know You see and hear our prayers of need, and will answer us in a way that reveal Your wisdom and love for each of us; even though it may not be as I (we) asked or expected. Always when I ask, You give me mercy, comfort and peace; even when You know that my circumstances are best left as they are and I just am pushing things; in the end it always works best, Your way.
Eventually I rest in the knowledge of Your loving, gracious vigilance over me. It is immensely important to take in, as I reflect, that I am always on Your mind and view. I appreciate even more Your care for me, when I remember that You gave me my own guardian angel, when I was born, as is the case for every person born upon earth.
Today I want especially to give praise for Your creative, preservative and spiritual gifts which are only the beginning of the totally positive experience of knowing and loving You. I am grateful that not only do You love every one deserving or not; for we that love You, there is the promised, inherent blessing just in being Your child. There is the blessing also, in the hope of salvation and being caught up into the air to meet Jesus, with new and transformed, pure bodies, and to travel with Jesus through the skies to His heavenly home, the place in which His Father God makes His home, along with the 100 and 1000s of angels living there.
My prayer focus just now, is that many others will embrace all You have to offer in Your Holy word and experience loving You with a full heart and mind.
Amen
