Greetings, Precious Family:

May the Peace of the Lord be with you.

Family, when life gets tough and you feel like throwing in the towel, please remember that God cares for you. Also, remember that there are so many instances when the world watches how we respond to trials, tests, and tribulations. No, I’m not saying to be fake or insincere. What I’m saying is to trust God through whatever you are going through.

When you are tired and want to sit down and throw your hands up, it is perfectly alright to do that. Just remember to take a deep breath, ask the Lord to help you to your feet, and keep moving until you can grab ahold of hope. You are not alone. Remember to ask for help and prayer. The enemy will try to isolate you through depression and anxiety but don’t give in. Call out for help. You are not alone.

If you ever need someone to talk to because you are thinking about giving up, please call 988 for the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline. You are NEVER ALONE.

Scripture Passage of the Day

Isaiah 41:10-13
New International Version

10 So do not fear, for I am with you;
do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you;
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

11 “All who rage against you
will surely be ashamed and disgraced;
those who oppose you
will be as nothing and perish.
12 Though you search for your enemies,
you will not find them.
Those who wage war against you
will be as nothing at all.
13 For I am the Lord your God
who takes hold of your right hand
and says to you, Do not fear;
I will help you.

Let Us Pray

Spirit of the Living God, thank you for reminding us how to pray when words escape us. Jesus told us to pray this prayer. Our Father who are in heaven, holy is your name. Your kingdom come, and your will be done in my life, as it has been spoken and decreed in heaven.

Lord God, you are the Bread of Life. Go with us today and be our portion and our sustenance. You are the Great, I Am. Everything we need you already have prepared for us.

Forgive us of our sins against you and our sins against others. I will remember to forgive others as well. Protect us from anything that would try to separate us from you. You Lord deserve all the glory, honor, and power. In Jesus name we do pray.

And we let it be…And so it is…

Amen, Amen, and Amen
