Thought and Reflection
Before the earth and the universe exist, there was Jesus… He existed before the all things was created. He will be there after they’ve passed away. In reality, His strength and His presence keeps our world as well as our universe and our very nature. He is the source of strength and the power that enables it and the kind preserver of our lives as we see it.
If He can give us with these things, and they’re just an inkling of what’s to come, wouldn’t it be wonderful to meet Him exactly as He is and be a part of His glory with the Lord!
My Prayer
Heavenly Father, thank You for Your grace-filled goodness today. Thank You that You created this amazing world I live in. You deserve all praise, glory, honor and praise!
I am looking for the day my Lord, when I can worship You from face to face and offer gratitude to God together, for His amazing loving kindness. To You and in Your name, my dear Jesus I give my praise and thanks. Amen.
