Matthew 18:-10-See that you do not despise one of these little ones. For I tell you that their angels in heaven always see the face of my Father in heaven.
Prayer: Dear Lord, always remind us to love children as You love them, even as we come to You with the trusting faith of a small child.
Reflection: Our earthly families may fail us, but our loving heavenly Father never will.
Continued Reading: Psalms 135-136 and 1 Corinthians 12
I know we may be adults, but we are children of God. Just like our children come to us for things, we can go to our Father in heaven through prayer and make our requests known to Him. He is always ready to listen to us, and not only that He is always ready to spend time with us. We should have a relationship with our heavenly Father just as our children has a relationship with us.
Strength for Your Journey
Habakkuk 3:19-The Sovereign Lord is my strength; He makes my feet like the feet of a deer, He enables me to tread on the heights.
Prayer: Father God, sometimes my suffering seems too much to bear. Help me to trust You and continue to walk with You on this journey.
Reflection: We can trust the Lord to be our strength in tough times.

Often times we become weak for whatever reason… it could be due to stress, depression, beating ourselves up because of a mistake was made. Our flesh gets in the way at times, and then the weakness makes us question God, and ourselves for whatever the situation is. When things like that happen, we need to know that God is our strength. He will give us strength to keep on going, to keep on running the race until we make it to the finish line…it does not matter if we finish first, or last, just as long as we finish the race that is set before us. He strengthens our feet and legs when we feel like we cannot make another step. We can go anywhere as long as we stay with Him. During the tough times in our lives, He will give us strength to handle things that we never thought we could. We can trust Him to be our strength in every aspect of our lives. As long as we walk with God, He will take us to new heights to walk that we have never been before. When we walk with God, we can go anywhere and not be afraid of anything. He will give us all of the strength that we need to accomplish our goals in life. Without God we cannot do anything, but with Him we can do all things. He will take us to places that we have never been before. It will only make us trust Him more , and strengthen our faith. We are strong in the Lord. We are not weak, although in the Word, it says that women are the weaker vessel, we give birth to children, so I feel God gave us strength to go through all of that pain to show the males that they are not the only ones that are strong in Him. What ever the situation is, God will give us all the strength to accomplish what He has chosen for us to do in our lives.
