“Never take Your Word of truth from my mouth, for I have put my HOPE in Your laws.” (Psalm 119:43)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
God, thank You for illuminating the truth contained in Your Word. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
*That You are good, righteous, and pure. And as such…⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
*Your system of justice is sound, good, and true, so…⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
*Your laws were & are designed for my best, our best, in mind. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When I see the homeless begging on the streets, when I read about the gun violence and wars, when I hear pain filled stories of betrayal, infidelity, abandonment and broken hearts, I know that at the root You are not the problem. We are.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For when we fall away from the plan of Hope You have for humanity, we see the evidence all around us.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Restore our hope, God. Reignite our passion for Your Word, for Your Name, for Your laws & ways. Help us to see the Kingdom You intended here on earth rise up and shine bright against the darkness. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And let it begin with me.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
