Thoughts on Today's Verse...

Having a place to live amid life's uncertainties and having assurance of God's protection and care are based on two essential principles:
  1. Trusting in the Lord.
  2. Doing good to others.
When we live by these two commitments, we learn to depend upon God in fresh new ways that bring us refreshment, hope, and joy. As we do, we extend God's grace and share God's blessings with others.

My Prayer...

Loving God, my Abba Father, I trust you with my life, which I offer to you as a living sacrifice to bring you glory and honor* as I seek to bless others as you have blessed me. As I do this, dear Father, I know you are rushing to meet me with your loving grace and love beyond compare. Thank you! Thank you for your love. Thank you for your protection. Thank you for holding my future in your hands. In Jesus' name, I praise you. Amen.

* Romans 12:1-2.
