Father, I praise You for the wonder of Your Son. I praise You for coming to us as one of us. I praise you for the miracle that is Jesus. I praise You for the gift of life. I thank you for the love you bestow. I thank you for Your Spirit that guides. I thank you for the opportunity to share You. Lord, you are my rock and my strength. In You I take refuge. I you I find eternal hope, everlasting joy, and indescribable peace. Father, You are my all. Be near this Christmas. 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
