Journal for April 13th…His Generosity

5:45 AM

Psalm 13, 43

13:6 Father…without any doubt about Your love I want to praise You for Your generosity. You have been so good to me. Yes, there are adversities and conflicts, and they tend to rob me of the brightness in my eyes v3. But You are able to restore that brightness; You are still generous. I must thank You for my salvation--devised by Your genius; offered by Your grace; provided for through Your mercy. More than generous.

I thank You for my family, each and every member; I thank You for my ministry, letting me be useful to You; I thank You for my health, which is more valuable as time goes by; I thank You, too, for my church family.

43:3 I ask that Your light and Your truth will lead me into Your presence today. I must confess my sins so no barrier remains between us. Thank You for the access I have into Your presence today. This world needs You. I need You each step of my way.

Forgive those who trespass against me and sin against me. I pray that I would not grow bitter or sour toward others. May Your Word be the standard for their conduct and love. You told us to love one another, and with Your help, Lord, I want to show love…even to my detractors and those who don't want to follow You.

My sins grieve Your Spirit enough, but Your light and truth will lead me to Your mountain! Straight to You! Fill me with Your Spirit today -- even during the mundane work and unexciting times, as well as big decision times. Make Your Word speak to me as I study and read today.

In the Name of Jesus Christ, the One and Only true Savior, and in the power of His blood, please put a strong hedge of protection around my family, my church, and my friends.
