Devotional Reflection

LovePeaceGratitudeHope

I don't know about you, but a lot of my life has been a mess. I have fallen down at some of the worst times. I've tripped over my own feet, shoelaces, curbs, and even just air, but I'm sure that God hasn't let me fall completely in my spiritual life, even though I've tripped up now and then. When I feel like I'm about to fall into the abyss, the love, care, concern, Scriptures, servants, and helpers of the Father have kept me from being destroyed. God's hand holds me up. He is there when things are hard. He has been powerful in saving. I do think He is happy about my journey. What do you think?

Prayer

Father, thank you for the way you have kept my life steady. Thank you for picking me up when I was down, keeping me safe when I was weak, and making me feel better when I was broken. I praise you for your kindness, your glory, and the fact that you are close by. Through Jesus, I want to tell you how much I love and appreciate you. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.
