Lord, thank you for the blessings in our lives on earth and thank you for
the promise of eternal life with you in Heaven.
Despite this knowledge, the burdens of daily life can leave us worried,
weary or disheartened. Please help us remember your words in our
times of weakness so that they may strengthen and uplift us – your
words such as those in Isaiah:
“But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar
on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and
not be faint.” Isaiah 40:31
And “fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I
will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous
right hand.” Isaiah 41:10
And in Matthew:
“Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in
heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my
burden is light.” Matthew 11:28-30
Thank you, Lord, that you are our hope and salvation and that we can
always turn to you and find peace.
In Jesus’ name we pray
Amen
