Shine His Light on Dark Thoughts
At midnight I will rise to give thanks unto thee because of thy righteous judgments.—Psalm 119:62 (KJV)
Look to the Lord and His strength; seek His face always.—1 Chronicles 16:11 (NIV)
Each one of us is put here on earth to make a difference. God’s purpose for you is far greater than you can imagine, far greater than your own happiness or peace of mind. To discover your purpose, turn to His Word. Spend time deepening your faith. Each day, plant seeds of love, nurture those around you, find joy in everything you do and never forget how important your life’s work truly is.
Heavenly Father, on days when I lose sight of my purpose for being here, help me to remember I’m doing this for You.
At midnight I will rise to give thanks unto thee because of thy righteous judgments.—Psalm 119:62 (KJV)
Worry takes a tremendous amount of energy and often robs us of sleep and joy. Pray for the strength to follow the Lord’s instruction and let go of your fears. Take His words to heart—“Fear not!”—and feel a spark of excitement grow into joy.
I have much to write to you, but I do not want to use paper and ink. Instead, I hope to visit you and talk with you face to face, so that our joy may be complete.—2 John 1:12 (NIV)
