All We Need

 

     The prayer from the book of Ephesians we looked at yesterday says we are “rooted and established in love.” Christ dwells in our hearts. He lives there! Our response to the devotion of God gives us the zeal to love others, to look for ways to share.

     God guides us all in different ways. He loves in the way each of us needs to be loved throughout the varied seasons of life. He comforts us when we grieve. He showers us with compassion when we are lost. He is faithful when we don’t feel His presence. He provides courage when we are afraid. He is patient when we lose our way. His loving kindness is never-ending and His grace and mercy are new every morning.

     This year we all desperately need a fresh start. God is the master of new beginnings. What will we keep from this impossible year? What will we gladly leave behind? (Hopefully, so much!)  We are all anxious to regain our freedom to move about freely, to be in close contact once again with our loved ones. For today, let God’s love fulfill your every need.

And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things, at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work. 2 Corinthians 9:8

And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of His glory in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:19

Father,

You will meet us where we are and show us Your plans. The riches you offer are way beyond our earthly needs. Help us to rest in that in the days ahead, knowing You are always there.

In Jesus name,

Amen
