"Is any among you sad?" asks St. James, "Let him pray." (James 5:13). Prayer is a sovereign remedy, for it raises the soul to God, who is our only joy and consolation..
- St. Francis de Sales
Prayer heals.
Prayer raises us from earthly chains to God, in Who there is perfect freedom and joy. As hard as the devil will try to make you, never forget your ever present, loving and gracious God, nearer to you than your next breath.
My God?
Wow, how is it that I can call the King and Creator of all 'mine'?
*sigh*
The most powerful, awesome God of the universe loves each and every one of His creatures children uniquely, tenderly, and so very dearly. gosh. Who can be sad thinking of that?
:]
My God, please keep me ever mindful of Your ever-present love and protection. Thank You for remaining faithful when I so often doubt and hide from You.
