This world is filled with plenty of trials and temptations. And sometimes those trials make us lose sight of what’s important or begin thinking negatively about the whole situation. But those hard times are when it's most important to keep your focus on God, He will fill you with peace and strength He will give you rest and be your source of joy. We don’t have to let those hard times fill us with fear and worry because we know God can work anything out for our good and we have a great reward waiting for us in heaven.
Prayer:
Thank you, God for carrying us through the hard times in life. Thank you for giving us peace and strength to carry on. Thank you for giving us rest when we need it and for being our source of joy. Please help us to keep our focus on you and to trust in your plan. Thank you for protecting us and providing for us. Thank you for the grace and mercy you give us each day. Thank you for loving us and caring for us. We love you and ask that you guide us on the path you have for us. Help us to do your will, in Jesus name we pray, Amen.
