Tuesday, September 29, 2020 Lord, looking at the mugshots of the rioters, I saw no life in their eyes. Their angry countenance suggested their hatred drives them to destroy all that was good and decent. In my carnal nature, I wrote them off as a lost cause. How quickly You corrected me. “Do you doubt My power to reach them? Have you forgotten I created them in My image? I died for their sins? How sad that most of those lost souls have no one praying for their salvation.” Forgive me, Lord. I pray their eyes are open to see their need of a Savior. just as what happened to me. May their hearts be opened to accept Your grace and forgiveness that You freely offer. New photos will show their changed countenance of their joy found in their new life in Christ. These former rioters now have meaning and purpose, experiencing new life in You Jesus, and the distinction of being created in Your image.
Be merciful to our friends who lives are forever altered by nature’s tragedies. The wildfires have left thousands looking at starting over from nothing. Lifetimes’ of work, sweat and tears have been swept away in the raging floods in the south. Bless, protect and provide their needs. Be the great God they need You to be. Bring good from these events at will cause people to seek and find You.
Forgive our sins. We repent of our unrighteousness and return to You as our God, to live by Your precepts and standards.
New life is found only in You, Lord Jesus. Amen.
THANKFUL
