1 Peter 1:6 “In this you greatly rejoice, now that for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials.”
Sweet Savior and Lord, thank You for Your so great salvation that gives us so much:
Forgiveness of our sins
Strength for our days here
Guidance so we do not drift aimlessly through life
A glorious purpose for life
Lovingkindness and patience from the Father
Joy for our hearts
True comfort in grief and trials
Eternal life lived now
The fruits of the Spirit
Each day’s provision and so much more
A record of our future
A wonderful new family
Hope and love in abundance
Lord, if I would only focus on those things, You and Heaven, and look each and every moment of every day for Your return, my life would be so less stressful. Lord I can get so "earthbound" if I am not on guard every day. I sometimes get my eyes on people and events instead, and when I do, hope and peace go out the window and stress flows in like a flood. I desperately want to live daily with my eyes on You and You alone! Help me, Lord!
