Father, We are sorry. Please forgive us. We want to shine Your light. We want to be positive and encouraging yet we’re self-focused and stubborn.  We want to be kind, but we are impatient and easily frustrated. And it’s hard to be kind when we see so many other people being unkind.But Father, You are greater than our circumstances. You are good and gracious. You are loving and kind. Make us like You. Strengthen us. Please grant us Your peace and help us to share that peace around the world. Amen.

Father, You are greater than our circumstances. You are good and gracious. You are loving and kind. Make us like You. Strengthen us, grant us Your peace, and love our lives and the people in it with positive passion and enthusiasm. Amen.

  1. Reveled in every quote you shared here, Deb. Thank you! I will enthusiastically and with great joy shine my light for Him!
    Blessings!

  2. This morning I was reading the book of Job with my son and of course, the take away was how amazing it was that Job worshiped God in spite of all the turmoil he faced. Our goal today is to stay positive even when things don’t go our way so this post is a little extra motivation to keep our spirits up.

  3. Quotes can be just that unless one finds a way to connect them to something. You did just that by including verses that match. Well done, Deb!

    Blessings to you and yours!

    Marie

  4. These are great. I need to start writing down some of my favorites and hanging them around my house.
