Today a hurricane approaches the southern short, I have fifteen people on my prayer list with serious medical issues, and I am living with severely blurry vision and see a retina specialist this morning for diagnosis and I hope treatment. I need to remember God is in charge and He can use all these to His glory.
When my heart is burdened, O Lord,
You remind me through Your Spirit
That You are in control,
That I need not fear,
That I cannot long mourn,
That I have all that I need,
That I can trust You
To raise the sun this morning,
Provide for our daily needs,
Erect tall hedges of protection,
Protect my soul from the evil one,
Bring joy out of sorrow,
Answer life’s perplexing questions,
And remind me of the joy of my salvation in You.
Then I will sing Your praises yet again
For Your restoration,
For Your caring instruction,
For Your direct and indirect answers,
For Your peace that passes all understanding,
For Your answers to every prayer
Spoken or heartfelt,
The ones where all I can utter is,
“Abba, Father, Daddy,”
This is too much for me, All I can do is turn it all over to You.
This is what I’ve done, And I confess with thanksgiving
Again, joy comes in the morning. In Jesus’ Name. Amen
