Blessed

Christ the King Sunday

If you obey and do right, a light will show you the way and fill you with happiness. ~ Psalm 97:11 (CEV)

Happy are people who grieve, because they will be made glad. ~ Matthew 5:4 (CEB)

KEY THOUGHT:
God fills his obedient followers with deep joy.
PRAYER:
Lord God, thank you that your joy is available to us even when there is so much grief in our lives -- perhaps even because of it. Forgive me for thinking that I need to get myself into a calm and drama-free spot before I can be blessed. Fill me with your blessings -- the joy of knowing that because of Jesus everything will turn out alright in the end. I'm going to face all the troubles with a new confidence. Amen.
