For many people The Christmas Season and the New Year
celebrations are connected to sad or lonely feelings. Maybe associated with
loss situations, broken dreams and aloneness. Maybe some of you reading this
now do associate this time of year with some pain. We need to be aware and
supportive of others during this festive season. I searched the Bible for God’s
relief, compassion and support for my and
your scarred hearts and spirits and found God telling us:
“Have I
not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be
dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9 The Lord is near to you because
you have a broken heart, and saves such as have a contrite spirit. Psalm 34:17-20 “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is
made perfect in weakness.” 2 Corinthians 12:9 All things will work together for good for you because
you love God, Romans 8:28 Make sure to rejoice always,
pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks
1 Thessalonians
5:16-18 and
the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your heart and
your mind in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:7
I invite you to repeat the following prayer for yourself:
Abba Father,
thank You for knowing every emotion I
go through and for having an answer and support for me today. Strengthen me
Lord to be of good courage. Thank You Lord that during my period of weakness
Your strength is made perfect. Help me Lord to pray continuously and to always have an attitude of gratitude. I
rejoice in the assurance that You are with me God wherever I am, that all
things will work together for good for me, and that I will rejoice because Your
peace God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard my heart and my mind
in Christ Jesus; in whose Holy Name I pray. To Jesus be the power, the glory,
the majesty and the dominion forever and ever and unto ages of all ages. Amen.
Jesus loves you,
In Him,
Wagdi Henein
