“Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms, and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God.”

Colossians 3:16

God, lately I feel a kind of peace I know I can only find in You. Surely there are worldly factors that come into play… but thank You for opening my eyes in trying to see You in all things. Thank you for each day you give me and the countless opportunities in my everyday life to learn to live for You just a little bit more than I did before. Thank you for giving me the faith to trust in You… and the knowledge that Your love is greater than all things. These days, I find myself at Your feet… desperate to know You more and to fall deeper in love with You. Father, I pray for a continual desire to grow in my relationship with You. Yesterday, You gave me an opportunity to serve some of your people in DC; You provided me with the courage to ask strangers for coats, with an income and donations so that I could purchase care package items, and with a community to support and serve with me. Thank you. God, I pray for a servant heart that would continue to grow for You. I pray that I would never feel content with the brokenness of this world. Would you call me to places and people groups wherever and whoever they may be, so that I would learn to rely fully on You. You know my heart better than I do and God, I know that many times I try to do things for Your glory, but end up with a feeling of accomplishment, accrediting myself instead of You and for that, I pray for forgiveness. You are a God of great wonders… and forever a holy God. In your Son’s name I pray, amen.
