Awe creating and sharing God—You strike awe in the hearts of humankind. Your Hand is so gracious and sustaining. You can hold my beautiful moments and heart crushing times at the same time, giving me a peace that transcends understanding.
How is that? How can that be?
Well, it’s You showing up in the best of times and the worst. It’s Your faithfulness and enduring love. It’s You not leaving me to my own devices, but surrounding me with The Body of Christ. It’s You. My relationship with You being the most important and precious thing in my life.
My whole existence rests in You.
Jesus, You came down from heaven and humbled Yourself as a mere man—vulnerable to the pains, difficulties, sadness and ire of humankind. You came down to save me and all humanity. Knowing You, accepting You into my heart as my Savior—being in relationship with You—that is the source of true and unbreakable peace.
You fully prepare me for life and all that it brings—the good, the bad, the sad, the joyous, the heartbreaking, the heart mending.
You and keeping my eyes on You; being fully engaged with You; putting myself into Your Presence—that brings me ultimate peace. It doesn’t take away the hard, but it surely does make it bearable. And I can even experience joy in it. I can hold hard and joyous simultaneously in my heart.
Thank You, Jesus, my Savior!
In the Peace Giving Name of Jesus I pray.
Amen.
