Prayer for Monday 4-25-2022

Lord our God, we thank You with all our hearts that Jesus Christ still lives today and that we may believe in Him and call upon Him as our Savior. We thank You for Him Who sees to the depths of our human misery and calls right into the midst of it, “Do not be afraid. I am with you. I live. I am your helper. No matter how insignificant you are, fear not, for I, Jesus Christ, shine into all the darkness, even into the darkness of sin and death, into all the judgment that has fallen or is still to come upon everyone on Earth.” Praise to Your name, Lord our God! You are great and almighty and beyond our understanding. But You have sent us the Savior Whom we can understand, and we rejoice that we may have community with Him, Jesus Christ, in Your presence.

Amen.
