Father's Day

Lord, thank you for my father, for his sacrifices and his love for me. Amen. When our dads are tired, overwhelmed, or feeling weak, Lord give them the strength to continue loving and working. Lord, give them the courage to stand strong.

Proverbs 23:24 – The father of the righteous will greatly rejoice; he who fathers a wise son will be glad in him. 

2 Corinthians 6:18 – And I will be a father to you, and you shall be sons and daughters to me, says the Lord Almighty.

Matthew 6:9-13

 "Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen."


 

 Psalms 103:11-22

11 For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is his love for those who fear him;
12 as far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us.
13 As a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him;
14 for he knows how we are formed, he remembers that we are dust.
15 The life of mortals is like grass, they flourish like a flower of the field;
16 the wind blows over it and it is gone, and its place remembers it no more.
17 But from everlasting to everlasting the LORD’s love is with those who fear him, and his righteousness with their children’s children—
18 with those who keep his covenant and remember to obey his precepts.
19 The LORD has established his throne in heaven, and his kingdom rules over all.
20 Praise the LORD, you his angels, you mighty ones who do his bidding, who obey his word.
21 Praise the LORD, all his heavenly hosts, you his servants who do his will.
22 Praise the LORD, all his works everywhere in his dominion. Praise the LORD, my soul.

God Knows What You Need

 "If God wills it, it will happen. If He did not, nothing I do will bring it to pass."    Life is like a garden, you can plant the best of seeds and still some do not grow.  The best laid plans may never come to be. Even the most carefully crafted plans can fail to work out as intended. Some of God's greatest gifts are the prayers that go unanswered. God has opened many doors for us but we often try to crawl through the broken glass window instead, only to be cut by the shattered glass. God is the ultimate parent. Just as when you were a child and you were told no, if you went on your own way, you would often find yourself hurt. God is like the parent who would come pick you up, dust you off, hold you and give you a lesson about listening and following directions, then put you back on course.  God gave us free will and if we push for something hard enough, God will let you go on your own way. He will let you fall because a lot of times failing is the only way w...

Jesus Prays

  Jesus Prays for Himself 17 Jesus spoke these words, lifted up His eyes to heaven, and said: “Father, the hour has come. Glorify Your Son, that Your Son also may glorify You, 2 as You have given Him authority over all flesh, that He should give eternal life to as many as You have given Him. 3 And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent. 4 I have glorified You on the earth. I have finished the work which You have given Me to do. 5 And now, O Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before the world was. Jesus Prays for His Disciples 6 “I have manifested Your name to the men whom You have given Me out of the world. They were Yours, You gave them to Me, and they have kept Your word. 7 Now they have known that all things which You have given Me are from You. 8 For I have given to them the words which You have given Me; and they have received them, and have known...

God's Presence

-
  When you are searching for something in your life and you pray to God for his presence. If your eyes can see, you will see him. If your ears can hear, you will hear him. You may see or hear the same things popping up all around you. It's not by random chance or a coincidence. Those signs are from God, don’t dismiss them. He is trying to get your attention. He wants to be in your presence, but the truth is, he needs you to be in his.
