“Deep calls to deep in the roar of your waterfalls; all your waves and breakers have swept over me. By day the Lord directs his love, at night his song is with me - a prayer to the God of my life.” Psalm 42:7-8, NIV

When we’re feeling most pressured or purposeless, when we’ve delayed celebrations and put plans on hold because of the uncertainty of the future. When we don’t know what’s coming next, when we don’t know how to mourn for what we’ve lost. When we experience an increase in fear and anxiety, when we see division, injustice and unrest… God is still rejoicing over us with singing and still works all things together for our good.

In this time I believe God is clearly wanting to work in us, so we are better aligned to his purposes. And that work starts by encouraging us to tune in to his love song. We grow increasing resilient when we know deep in our spirit that nothing can separate us from the love of God that is in Christ. Take time today to let his love sweep over you.

Let’s pray
Father, I love you, I worship and adore you, glorify your name in all the earth. Glorify your name. Glorify your name. Glorify your name in all the earth.
Jesus. I love you I worship and adore you, glorify your name in all the earth. Glorify your name. Glorify your name. Glorify your name in all the earth.
Spirit, I love you I worship and adore you, glorify your name in all the earth. Glorify your name. Glorify your name. Glorify your name in all the earth.
Amen.
