Father, thank you for the care you have shown this week through the encouragement of those you have brought into my life. Thank you for the way you provide opportunities for me to grow in relationship with others and with you. I praise you for the work you are doing in me and the way you are transforming my heart. You are moving mightily and sharing your voice and your will with me. I am grateful to be a child of you. To you be the glory for the work you do in, around, and through me. Amen.
Psalm 100:5 For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations. I was prompted to read this verse and it was perfect for today, of course. All of Psalm 100 is praise to God. For me today, I am praising God because He was faithful in something He had revealed to me a while ago. Let me explain. Have you ever asked God for His strength? Not just strength, but His strength. This is something that I was prompted to do about a year ago, not to just ask for strength in general, but to specifically request His strength to be given to me. I know it sounds a little like a bit of rhetoric, but keep reading. In requesting God's own strength, I have noticed something tremendous has happened each time. When God bestows His strength within me, it is so much more than just endurance. His strength comes with clarity of mind, lightening of the spirit, and a depth of inner joy that cannot help but make me smile. I feel energized in a way
