Life

for “‘In him we live and move and have our being’; as even some of your own poets have said, “‘For we are indeed his offspring.’ Acts 17:28

Father,

We look around us and know You are here. We see the glorious sky, the magnificent sunrises and sunsets, Your creation surrounds us, and then we hear the laughter of friends. You are amazing! Thank You. Thank You for life.

 We ask that our children walk in life, knowing they are surrounded by a God who is all powerful and yet is Love. Give our children and families eyes to see You everywhere they look. Give them the hope that they can live in You and move and have their being as Your offspring. Wake up their slumbering hearts and let them know that Your love heals. Your love saves and that overwhelming Love delivers us from ourselves. Father, have mercy on them and forgive them. Let them be mighty servants who want You above all else. Wake them, turn them, and set their feet on solid ground. Father, some are serving You, we give thanks for Your faithfulness. Give all of them an urgency of the times. O God, we wait, we trust, we rest.

Bless Israel and reveal to them the joy of living in You, they are Your offspring. Bless our nation and let us yearn for You. We want to live in a land full of Your offspring, let us rejoice in Your presence.

In Christ alone
