Blessed God,

Thank You! You take such tender care of us.

(7:04 a.m.)

How very cool is this? ALL this time spent reading of Your tenderness. Your loving care. Psalm 27. And the Genesis story of Joseph. Starting at chapter 37. He experienced Your faithful provision first hand.

Thank You for his example of forgiveness toward his brothers Dear Lord. Chapter 50. Verse 20a. “You intended to harm me, but God intended it all for good.”

How perfect You are Father. Providing Your protection and presence in the form of the Holy Spirit. Here to pray for us in our weakness (Romans 8:26). Thank You for knowing our hearts (v. 27). And for causing “everything to work together for the good of those who love” YOU (28).

All of this Truth taking me to one verse below what I’ve been quoting back to You for months. Intentionally remembering the faithfulness of Your goodness. Your grace. Your greatness. And Your glory (Psalm 145:5-8).

Verse 9. “The LORD is good to all, and His tender mercies are over all His works.” The Message describes everything You do as being “soaked through with grace.” Thank You God!

Use us Lord. Exactly as You know is best. Treating one another tenderly. Lovingly. Carefully. We love You. We need You. We want You. Thank You. Praise You. Amen.
