Incredible God
I am the Lord, the God of all living things! Is anything too hard for me? ~ Jeremiah 32:27 (CEB)
Paul wrote: All of our praise rises to the One who is strong enough to make you strong, exactly as preached in Jesus Christ... All our praise is focused through Jesus on this incomparably wise God! Yes! ~ Romans 16:25,27 (MSG)
KEY THOUGHT:
God has no peer.
PRAYER:
Glorious and wise God, I have nothing to say that you don't already know. Thank you for inviting me into your conversation anyway. Forgive me for acting as though you don't really understand and as though you need someone to school you on reality. Reframe my approach to reality so that it is totally Jesus-centered. Jesus is going to be the focal point of my world and my praise. Amen.
