The Power of God

"Are you so tired that you're about to give in? Be honest and tell Him. Allow His magnificence to flood your spirit. If you face a situation that needs a miraculous outcome, cry to to God who made this promise: "Ask me and I will tell you remarkable secrets you do not know about things to come."

Lord,
This day has not gone how I wanted it to go. Right now, I feel like the only way out of my situation is your miraculous hand at work. Perhaps, that's exactly where you want me to today. I cry out to you. You are my hope and my only prayer. You have mastery over my situation. Here I am. I have come to wait...and to receive. I need your power, but I am slowly learning that my need and its supply are different than I thought. I thought I needed the ability to do things, but you wanted to give me the power to become patient, understanding, and forgiving like you. I wanted the power to control things, but you began to teach me that your power, which created all things, sustains all things, and oversees all things, is sufficient to manage my concerns. Your day, your power, have become my day and my joy. Your joy - which I have gained through your power - has become my strength.
