Jesus of Nazareth has given us another day to fully enjoy. He has given us new life in His name, complete forgiveness for our sins, and a fully restored relationship with our Heavenly Father. We live and move and find our being completely in Him, and there is nothing, and no one, who will ever separate us from His love.

If you have started this morning feeling depressed, then let His encouragement fill you with joy. If fear is knocking at your door, then ask Him to remove it with His perfect love. If you are feeling troubled, then believe on Him, so that He can calm your weary heart, and even in the midst of feeling tired, you go to Him for much-needed rest.

So, let us rejoice this morning (especially if you don’t feel like it), and lift up your voice unto Jesus. For He is the author and perfecter of our faith, and He will remain faithful to complete the work He has started within every one of our lives.

Prayer:

Lord Jesus,

Thank you for creating a new day. In the next few moments, I ask you to hear me, as I share my thoughts and express my feelings to you. After this time, may you create a new space where I can hear your voice. As I listen to you, may the Holy Spirit inspire me with your Word, and direct my steps. For I want to know your thoughts and be mindful of your ways, as you walk with me throughout this day. Thank you, Lord Jesus. Amen.
