“From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I”
(Psalm 61:2 in the King James Version of the Holy Bible). When my world is in chaos and I’m weary with the constant day-to-day grind, I have a place I can hide until my heart is strong enough to continue on.
Prayer: Lord, you are my shelter, the stability that I so desperately need in my life. The strength that You offer me today is rock-solid.

“For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father” (Romans 8:15 in the King James Version of the Holy Bible).
I’m amazed by the relationship that God desires to have with us! I traded slavery to the things of the world for a place in God’s family. I’m no longer a slave, but an heir – a daughter of the King! I have no cause to fear for His arms are outstretched inviting me to stop for a moment to consider how valuable I really am to Him.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, You want only the very best for Your children. Your Word has reassured me today that I can rest secure in You. Amen!
