Day 3 - Week 22 - WWI

Beloved,
"...the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong...
The wise sometimes goes hungry, and the skillful are not necessarily wealthy.
And those who are educated don't always lead successful lives..."-Ecclesiastes 9:11.
"When someone has been given much, much will be required in return;
when someone has been entrusted with much, even more will be required."-
Luke 12:48.
Merciful Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, we thank you for placing your Holy Word in our heart.
We thank you for the endurance to follow your will and way for our life: loving us, encouraging us, strengthening us along the way.
We thank you for reminding our heart, soul, body, and being that You are in charge of EVERYTHING, and that you will use things the world considers foolish in order to shame those who think they are wise. And also choose things that are powerless to shame those who are powerful:
1 Corinthians 1:27;
Therefore, the safest place for us is in Your perfect and Holy will for our life regardless of what anyone or thing says.
Abba Father, we thank you for giving us your words to hold on to; You are the ultimate promise keeper: Matthew 28:20.
We love you, Lord God Almighty.
Help us to stay focused on you, alone: letting go of things and circumstances that are not of you.
Thank you Holy Spirit for enduring in and with us: we love you.
Jesus Christ, Our risen Lord and Saviour...we are trying our best: never let us go, keep us forever.
We love you, Lord; Help us : Psalm 70, Isaiah 65:24.
We repent of our sin.
We receive your unconditional love, and your forgiveness: thank you.
We receive all of the blessings that you have for us.
Jesus is the Lord.
Amen.
