Be humble in front of the Lord and He will lift you up. James 4:10 NIRV

God wants us to experience the gift of a grateful heart. He longs for us to witness how it feels to be blessed. He provides glimpses of good. When we need to find STRENGTH in times of trouble, He reminds us to open our eyes and notice what He wants us to discover.  

God has plans for our days. He provides what we need! He readies us to find HOPE and humbles our hearts for Jesus. As we remain faithful, He allows us to witness the gifts of His greatness and experience the power of LOVE.   

Because of Jesus, we will find HOPE in our sufferings. As we take time to stand in His presence, God will remind us of what has already been done to lead us to a place of wholeness. He WILL take care of us and those we love.  

Oh, how we need God’s mercy and grace! If we open our eyes, examine our hearts and welcome Christ to dwell, we will find strength for weakness when we allow ourselves to be held.  We will not be shaken when we’re cradled in His care.   

God will help us find peace in what He provides. He will humble our hearts and help us keep on going…He is God and He loves us! He will reward those who seek Him with faithfulness. He will help us recognize His many blessings, even in times of wonder… 

God, Thank you for Jesus! We’re humbled to consider His sacrifice and love for each one of us. Draw us closer to the gift of Your faithfulness and forgive us when we forget to notice Your blessings. Fill us with gratitude for ALL You have done. Help us find HOPE for what's to come. As we're lifted by the prayers of our PRAISE, help us remember YOU are the Provider of everything we need. We will love you with all of our hearts and find PEACE in presence. Thank you for helping us completely TRUST, no matter what. Thank you, Lord! Thank you! Amen
