When I am… Tired. Overwhelmed. Defeated. Your word reminds me that I am not alone. I am weak, but You, O Lord, are strong. When I seek to worship in Your presence, I am calmed. Your word reminds me You alone are in control. You strengthen me, give me resolve to press on. To continue to live for You, shine my light for You, love in Your name. You alone are worthy, Lord.
If you have these same human feelings and emotions, I pray the following verses bring calm to your day and strength to your spirit.
2 Corinthians 4:16 “Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. “
Ephesians 3:16-20 “I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us,”
Romans 12:2 “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.”
Psalm 51:10-12 “Create in me a pure heart, O God,
and renew a steadfast spirit within me.
Do not cast me from your presence
or take your Holy Spirit from me.
Restore to me the joy of your salvation
and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me.”
