Satan has asked for you, that he may sift you as wheat. But I have prayed for you, that your faith should not fail.—Luke 22:31-32 (NKJV)
Life’s challenges can sometimes turn you upside down and make you feel ripped apart. When you are feeling shaken and sifted like Peter in today’s verse, Jesus intercedes. When you are at your lowest, He is by your side.
Lord Jesus, because of You, I can overcome life’s hardships. Because of You, my faith will not fail.

The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.—Psalm 34:18 (NIV)
