daily prayer

Good morning! How are we faithing? Tis a hard time to deal with sometimes this world. We get handed a lot in life that makes us ask why. I'm not sure of the answers but I do know who is. I also have learned that the answers may not be forth coming when I think they should. With that knowledge it is prudent to rely on the Word for comfort when we are writhing in pain. I see so many people enduring things that seem so insurmountable but praise God for vision beyond immediate circumstances. Many times we've talked on this but as of late I have seen things compounded due to timing. Two families burnt out three days before Christmas. Is it any harder now instead of oh, May 26th? Or August 19th? No the problem is the same but it seems bigger due to timing. I want you all to realize that God is bigger than anything you are up against and driving yourself further down due to surroundings serves no one. Maintain your perspective by reading the Word and step out of your place for a second and look for lessons. Our sanity sometimes feels suspect but if the problems are broken down to the root cause we are able to see the lesson or at a minimum avoid it again. I would like for ya'll to take a second or two and bow your head and ask for wisdom and clarity. Seek that peace that God promised and know it is right there for you. You'll be thankful...

John 5:24-27
"I tell you the truth, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life. I tell you the truth, a time is coming and has now come when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God and those who hear will live. For as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted the Son to have life in himself. And he has given him authority to judge because he is the Son of Man.
NIV

Rom 5:1-8
Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;And patience, experience; and experience, hope: And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
KJV

Heavenly Father,
Wake us up Lord to your paths and ways. Grant us the wisdom to see things as they are. Give the strength and courage to act and live righteously and with honor. Teach us to hold our tongues and use them wisely. Lord we lift those listed and those on each of our hearts today. Make your presence known, in Jesus name, amen
