In the morning I will sing about your love. You are like a fort to me. You keep me safe in times of trouble. ~ Psalm 59:16b (NIRV)
All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. God is our merciful Father and the source of all comfort. ~ 2 Corinthians 1:3 (NLT)
Merciful Father, you are the source of all comfort.
THANKS: Thank you for taking care of me -- protecting me and when necessary, comforting me.
REGRETS: But sometimes when I am hurting, tired, or afraid, I forget about your fort. And I go to unhealthy places for "protection" and "comfort." I know that I need to allow myself to be in your fort all the time -- even when I'm not sensing any danger.
INTERCESSION: I need to learn how to depend on you when there is trouble. Gently teach me dependence.
PURPOSE: I'm going to be your dependent and praise you without stopping.
Amen.
