DESPITE MY SHORTCOMINGS

Father, I thank you for another blessed morning that was not promised.  Despite my shortcomings, you continue to forgive, provide, protect, guide, and restore.

Father, your love is one of a kind.  When I’m down, your love uplifts my spirit.  When I am weak, your love strengthens my walk in life. When I’m afraid, you allow such darkness to dissipate. 

Father, help all to understand the debts of your love.  Help them to know that you come so that they may have life and have it more abundantly.  Therefore, let go of the problems of yesterday and start anew in Jesus Christ.

“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!.”  2 Corinthians 5:17
