In Honor of St. Patrick's Day














Lord-


Today has been a busy day, and I thought I needed to post today before it became tomorrow. Which it will in three minutes!!

Lord you are the giver and the sustainer of life. Thank you for your promise, like you promised to Jacob at Bethel, that you will not leave us until your promise and covenant with us is finished.

Genesis 28:15
- "I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go, and I will bring you back to this land. I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you."

I love this promise Lord, especially because it is St. Patrick's Day tomorrow/today (by the time this is posted). St. Patrick's Day, at least in my experience, has always been equated with luck, but we as Christians need to equate it with thanking you, Lord Jesus, for your blessings to us. You created within us a journey that you are being faithful to complete. Thank you for promising not to leave us and to watch over us.

Lord thank you for your promise through sacrifice. Thank you for friends and encouragement they provide. You are great Lord. Thank you for your calling and journey in our hearts. I pray for my brothers and sisters in Christ who are walking along that journey to completion. Thank you Jesus for being faithful even when we fall and skin our knees fighting our flesh. You are great Lord, and we are like a clover -- one of many, but one of a kind to you.

May you have all the glory forever and ever, Amen. In your name.
