For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
2 Corinthians 12:9–10

GOD WILL SEE YOU THROUGH IT ALL

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your overarching love.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to thank you for the gift of life and the strength to push through their mental and physical woes.

GOD ALLOWS SMILES FROM WITHIN

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for second chances.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to say, “Thank You”. If it weren’t for you, they would not be in the right state of mind this morning. If it were not for you, they would not have survived their most heartbreaking experience. If it were not for you, they would not have been able to push through their darkness. If it were not for you, they would not be able to understand that your love is indeed unconditional.

Father, help all to understand that when they have unfathomable experiences and pains in life, you are always present to comfort, guide, direct, restore, renew, and keep them. Help those who have experienced and continue to experience many ups and downs in life understand that there is always a greater purpose for all things.

Moreover, help them to cling to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for all things, and they will be able to smile from within again.

“The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.” Numbers 6:24-26
