Pictures of Restoration | Your Nightly Prayer

Lord, you know how easy it is for me to become discouraged.

Updated Feb 06, 2025

Lord, you know how easy it is for me to become discouraged. Teach me to notice the pictures of restoration that are evident around me, including the budding leaves after a harsh winter or the rebuilding of a neighborhood and garden after a storm. All these things point to the cross and empty tomb, which brought eternal life and the promise of a renewed creation. May I rest in this promise tonight. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
