Scripture:
Isaiah 49:5 (NIV)
I am honored in the Lord’s eyes. My God has become my strength
Reflection:
I am honored in the Lord’s eyes. This makes me so rewarded by the lord my savior that he loves me and enjoys my journey with him. He cares for me and wants me to be godlier and less about this world. I know that his love is unconditional.
Things of this life are temporary, but God is forever. My God has become my strength. This part of the passage I love because whenever I get down or frustrated, I turn it over to my lord who is in charge, not me or anybody else or anything. I do all things through Jesus Christ my Lord and savior.
Reflection Written by Charles Wesley Newsom 4th
Prayer:
Dear Heavenly Father, please forgive my sins. I know I fall short because my spirit loves you, but my flesh is weak. Help me become closer to you because I surrender, and I am willing to grow and love you more.
In Jesus's name, we pray, Amen.
