Dear Lord,
I praise You, the God and Father of my Lord Jesus Christ!
How wonderful that Christ, in His great mercy, has given me new birth and a living hope through His resurrection from the dead. I now have the gift of not only walking with You but the joy of spending eternity with You.
Your unfailing love is with me. Even as I put my hope in You, I know that my hope is also your gift to me. You continue to fill me with joy and peace as I trust in You. Help me to trust You more so that my joy and peace may increase. Help my hope to grow even stronger by the power of the Holy Spirit.
You, Lord, have not abandoned me to the wiles of this world. In fact, You have plans for me. Your plans include my well-being, not trouble. You want to give me a future and a hope.
How amazing that though this is not heaven, You are making a way for me to thrive with purpose. Lead me to Your purpose every day of my life.
I love You, Lord, and I thank You for renewing my strength. I will soar on wings like eagles, I will run and not grow weary, I will walk and not faint.
When I look to You, the darkness flees and hope lights my way.
In the name of Jesus, amen.
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.
