Reflection

“We have to pray with our eyes on God, not on the difficulties.” ~ Oswald Chambers

Prayer

Ever present God,

Too often in life we focus on the problems we face and the challenges we confront. That focus can often leave us feeling overwhelmed, drowning in a sea of troubles. Especially in such times, help us to maintain our focus on you, remembering that you will never abandon us. May our prayer keep us fixed on you and stir within us the hope of a better day ahead. In God’s name, we pray. Amen.

Call to Action

What one action can I take, or what one commitment can I make today, that will help me to focus, not on the difficulties but on God’s presence and love for me?
