"May the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God and into the steadfastness of Christ." -II Thessalonians 3:5 (NASB)
Watching or listening to news reports isn't always encouraging. Sometimes the needs of the world and those close around us seem too great for us to tackle. When we look at those around us, we can pray a prayer similar to Paul's wish for the church of Thessalonica.
Paul's hope was that the people of Thessalonica would be directed to the love of God and reassurance in Jesus Christ. Even though we may feel small and unable to help, a prayer for hearts rooted in God's love and salvation through Jesus can be a valuable contribution. Praying for God's direction, love, and redemption is a contribution that we are all able to make!
Make Paul's wish yours: May the Lord direct our hearts to God's love and reassurance in salvation through Jesus!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Please direct all of our hearts to Your love and into the everlasting salvation offered through the sacrifice of Your Son. Through Him I pray, amen.
