Devotional Reflection
Understanding how much the Lord loves us, is with us, and is close to us should make us want to serve Him and grow closer to Him. We love God for many reasons, but we want to tell Him today that we love Him most because He cares about us personally. In a world where people who are "above" others don't want to spend time with those "below" them, we are truly blessed to have a God who listens to all of our cries, knows each of our voices, and tunes His ear to hear each of our whispers. Yes! As long as I live, I will pray to Him, praise Him, thank Him, confess to Him, and talk with Him.
Prayer
Father, you are aware of every heartbeat and hair on my head. I'm grateful that you hear my prayers. I appreciate you providing the response I requested to so many of them. Please be patient with me when I am unable to discern your presence in other responses that are delayed or fail to produce the desired outcome. Even when I can't see it, I trust that you are there and working for my benefit. I believe you always act in my best interest and for your glory. But kindly, Father, help me to grow in faith so that I will always have confidence in you. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.

Prayer
Father, you know every single hair on my head and every thought that goes through my mind. I'm glad you heard my prayers. Thank you for giving me the answers I was looking for to so many of them. Give me patience when I can't see your hand in other answers that don't come as quickly or don't do what I want them to do. Even when I can't see it, I believe and trust that you are there and working for my good. I know you always do what's best for your glory and for me. But please, dear Father, make my faith stronger so that I will never lose trust in you. I'm asking for this in the name of Jesus. Amen.
