Hallelujah, praise the living God for another day to pray for you all and be used by Him. Today I offer these lines from Warren Wiersbe.

“God’s love for His own is not a pampering love; it is a perfecting love. The fact that He loves us and we love Him is no guarantee that we will be sheltered from the problems and pains of life.”

1 John 4:11
New American Standard Bible 1995

¹¹ Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.

Heavenly Father, in the name of our Lord Jesus, Your servant praises and worships You. 

Bless Your lovingkindness that covers us and compels us to love You and one another. Praise the power of Your love that gives comfort in the face of every storm and trial we encounter. Thank You for using these trials to test us and grow us in the likeness of Jesus, our Lord. Yours is a perfecting love and I pray that we will allow it to have its perfect work in our lives. When we think we are forsaken and all alone, please remind us of Your promise to never leave us or forsake us. Your love is more than enough to get us through.

Father, we thank You that You have heard us. Amen in Jesus’ name and by the power of the Holy Spirit.
