Good morning, Father.
This week you’ve brought us more gifts; blessings in the form of friends who come to help us in our need; encouragement in a letter from a far away friend; family members who pop in just to say I love you.
Father give us hearts of gratitude for Your many blessings.
For all of the heroes You have placed in the spotlight of our lives, You remind us that there are many more in the shadows. They don’t get in the news, they don’t draw crowds of people to hear what they have to say; and they don’t write books. They are just busy loving You and serving You. They are the pebble that starts a rock slide. They are the word that fans into flame our desire to draw closer to You. They are the people whose actions inspire us to do something more for You. They aren’t looking for anything for themselves; they are just busy being Jesus to someone else. Help us be Jesus to someone today.
Remind us that the person who is driving us crazy today could be Your next Charles Spurgeon. Remind us that the person to usher in the next revival could be the one we see in the mirror.
Father, we ask You to give us strength to fulfill our ministry. Help us to not only be watchful in all things, but to focus our lives on accomplishing Your purpose in us.. Help us encourage each other to be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.
Let us be people who bless others and people who excitedly carry Your light and Your healing to those around us. Help us willingly give to others as You have so freely given to us.
Be blessed as we praise, be honored as we worship. And may Your Kingdom come and Your will be done on earth just as it is in Heaven.
In the name of Your Son Jesus we pray.
Amen
