Oh, Father God, we are blessed! We are blessed beyond what we know ... what we have ... what we want ... what we need! We are blessed because of Your unfailing love for us! We are blessed because, after this short life is over, we have been given eternal life WITH YOU!
The blessed person finds their sufficiency in You, Lord God. You are in control of everything, Father! Give us saintlike faith so we can trust You and submit to Your will in our lives, Lord! Bless us each day by sending Your Holy Spirit to dwell within each of us so that we can experience that unexplainable joy and peace that comes with surrendering all we are to what You want us to be ... truly, fully, wholly Yours. One with You in mind, body, and spirit!
Please, Lord, give us the faith to trust nothing other than You. May we truly be poor in spirit yielding to You, submitting to Your will because we know You love us and want the best for us. We can rejoice in knowing that You are with us because You love us. We will rejoice and be glad because ours is the kingdom of heaven!
No matter what happens to us, instill in us and strengthen us to stand firm in faith to You, O God.
Blessed are we! Let us never forget what it means to be children of God ... saints of Yours ... not perfect people, but people who trust in You, who submit our will to Your will and stand firm in our faith in You.
We can only do this with Your help, Lord Jesus, and it's in Your mighty name we pray. Amen!
