Father, give you all praise for this blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your unconditional love, protection, guidance, restoration, and peace.
Father, as many have awakened and have begun their day, they smile because you have granted them another opportunity to get it right. They smile because they are able to examine themselves and determine where they have fallen short and repent of their sins. They smile because, despite their shortcomings, you continue to forgive and redirect their path as well as their mindset.
Father, help all to understand that they always have a reason to smile, despite their pain, darkness, and/or difficulties in life. Help them to understand that with you, they have eternal life.
Father, help all to also realize that they can always depend upon you through their difficulties, because you control all things, situations, and people.
“In him we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to the purpose of him who works all things according to the counsel of his will, so that we who were the first to hope in Christ might be to the praise of his glory. In him you also, when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and believed in him, were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit, who is the guarantee of our inheritance until we acquire possession of it, to the praise of his glory.”
Ephesians 1:11-14
