Hope For Today Videos

Whatever gives you a sense of “being ancient” let’s enjoy today some prayers based on these ancient but very much up to date words from Psalm 67.

Many of us have experienced the joy that comes when we surrender our will and our lives into God’s care and are restored to relationship with God. Our spirit comes alive as God’s Spirit lives in us.  God begins to pour His unfailing love into us.  We begin to believe that we do belong to God and are His cherished children who bring delight to His heart.

At times, we will not have an explanation for why things happen in our lives but we are assured that God is working all things together for good.

Living in peace with others around us?  Is it possible?  How can we maintain peace in our personal relationships and in our society at large?

Some changes seem to come more slowly than we’d like but once again we can give thanks that when we walk with God His timing of things is always for a much greater good than our disappointment about its seeming slowness to happen.

How much blessing do we miss out on because we don't really take God at His Word, and expect Him to do something immeasurably more than we could ask or imagine for us, in our day, to sort out the challenges we face?

In the face of great challenges and difficulties, let’s reaffirm our faith in the presence of a God whose word is faithful and true.  God is the same yesterday, today, and forever.  From everlasting to everlasting He is God. His care for us will be consistent.

What are we asking of God?  Are we just “going with the flow” about what’s happening.  How filled with faith are our prayers as we come to God seeking His help for the various difficulties in our lives in nature as well as human behaviour?

Just for today I will seek to serve others with kindness, doing what is right, and walking humbly with God.

Just for today I will be unafraid, believing that as I trust in God with all my heart and lean not on my own understanding, He will lead me along a good path.

Just for today I will have a quiet half hour all by myself to relax and enjoy all that God is giving me.

Just for today I will be agreeable.  I will not criticize, not find fault, and not try to improve or control anybody except myself.  I will pray blessing on one person with whom I struggle to relate.
