Christian Devotional-Stories and Bible verses about the presence of God in our lives

Please God, Save Me from Today!

If I could skip a couple of months,  I’d skip January and February…

The Christmas lights are gone…

The sun sets in the middle of the afternoon…

The weather is cold, and the days are dark.

Really, God, couldn’t You fast forward from Christmas to Easter?

Couldn’t you save me from whole seasons in my life?

Please, God, save me from the painful parts….

You could.

I know You could.

But if  You save me from all my dark days…

I’ll miss the chance to grow my faith…

Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen  Hebrews 11:1

I’ll miss the chance to become who you want me to be.

For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11

I’ll miss the gifts that stand out even more because of the background against which You set them…

Like Your glory…displayed in a sunset at the end of a cold, dark day…
