Is this for you today?

Something true and great to consider:

Here's one of the most moving prayers I've discovered recently (taken from the attached video at about 22 minutes): Dear Lord Jesus Christ, I come to you tonight a sinner, needing salvation. Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the living God, have mercy on me! Save me now! I surrender my life, every room in my heart, and I confess with my mouth, what I believe in my heart, that Jesus Christ is Lord, that Jesus is my Savior, that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and as of this night, I surrender all! In the name of Jesus, from this night forward, I belong to Jesus and Jesus belongs to me. I believe it, I receive it and confess it, in the name of Jesus. Amen! https://youtu.be/d8AUknPXtFE?si=WhZlQDl1uYio6mc3

A wonderful quote about faith.

Redeemed and loved. Thank you! 🙏

I don't know about you, but verse 4 of "The Summons" always hits hard for me. "Will you love the "you" you hide if I but call your name? Will you quell that fear inside and never be the same?" https://youtu.be/VFXAmB_Iq7k?si=8EafxOSXCgj8YaBc

Dear God, I woke up. I'm healthy and alive. I'm blessed and truly grateful for another day. I dedicate this day to building a closer relationship with you.

I'm going to start sharing my favorite prayers that I've saved and pray most days, starting with this one, but please note these were created by other people.

This is one of my favorite scenes from Overcomer. A reminder that you're chosen. https://youtu.be/hgwsszuS0CI?si=SQxnbXAerDwIccF2

Here are a few lines from the 1996 movie "Dear God" which resonate with me: Pastor: "Confusion is good. Faith isn't arrived at easily. It's the struggle that gives it its power and its meaning. Tom: You still struggling? Pastor: Every day. Yeah. When times are particularly trying, I try to act as if everything is as it should be, the way God intends it. And then, eventually, I get my faith back."

Heavenly Father, we thank you for this new day and the gift of our community. As we gather, we ask that you pour out your Spirit upon us, uniting us in love and purpose. Open our hearts and minds to serve one another with kindness, and grant us the courage to be your hands and feet in our neighborhood. Protect our families, strengthen our faith, and guide our actions, so that everything we do brings glory to your name. In Jesus' name, Amen.
