The 9th Sunday after Pentecost
DANIEL 10:19 (NLT)
“Don’t be afraid,” he said, “for you are very precious to God. Peace! Be encouraged! Be strong!”
JOHN 16:20 (MSG)
You’ll be sad, very sad, but your sadness will develop into gladness.
SUMMARY SENTENCE
God turns our pain into joy.
PRAYER
Heavenly Father, you love us as no one else loves. Forgive me for doubting your love when I'm experiencing pain. The pain has a way of messing with my judgment and I lose perspective on things. Restore my confidence and internal peace. Adjust my outlook on life so that I'm fully trusting in you to transform the negative things I'm experiencing into positive growth for your kingdom and me. I'm trusting you. Amen.
THE LORD’S PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your Name, your Kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and forever. Amen.
Since 2015, I've been modeling one way of using the MORAVIAN DAILY TEXTS* to maintain a daily conversation with God.
