GOD IS THE ANSWER

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they smile because you have granted them another opportunity to get it right. Despite their sins, you forgive them after true repentance.

They understand that it is only by your grace that they have life, and they have it more abundantly. Therefore, instead of dwelling on what did not come to fruition, they remain grateful to know that you are always present in their lives, directing their steps and mindset.

Father, help all to understand that you are the answer to all of their desires, needs, and wants. Help them understand that, despite their shortcomings, you will never forsake them.

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and that does not fade away, reserved in heaven for you, who are kept by the power of God through faith for salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.” 1 Peter 1:3-5

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they smile. They try to never take the gift of life for granted; however, they fall short because no one on earth is perfect.

“But you, Timothy, man of God, run for your life from all this. Pursue a righteous life—a life of wonder, faith, love, steadiness, courtesy. Run hard and fast in the faith. Seize the eternal life, the life you were called to, the life you so fervently embraced in the presence of so many witnesses.”
1 Timothy 6:11–12
