Hallelujah, praise the living God for another day to pray for you all and be used by Him. Today I offer this line from Charles H. Spurgeon.

“He who affirms that Christianity makes men miserable, is himself an utter stranger to it.”

2 Corinthians 5:17
New American Standard Bible 1995

¹⁷ Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come.

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

Bless You, for allowing me to experience the joy of knowing You. Thank You for calling me into a relationship with Your Son, my Lord, Jesus Christ. Praise Your power that can make anything old and filthy into something new and clean. The truth is life was miserable when I was ignoring You, and now, knowing that You cannot lie and that You love me so much changes everything. Indeed, life is not easy and there is still pain, but You give me the eyes to see it as a gift and a chance to grow more into the likeness of Christ. Help me share the joy You have placed in my heart with others.

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