"The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; He will save, He will rejoice over thee with joy; He will rest in His love; He will joy over thee with singing."
Zephaniah 3:17
God's mercy is new every morning in hearts that seek Him. We can pray no better prayer than to entreat His mercy on those we love. Prayer allows us to participate in the joy of His goodness. Our belief and prayers do make a difference, for He made a place for them in His plan.
Let us go now to our day with the full assurance that our prayer has been heard, and that His mercy is renewed.
These were God's encouraging words to the Hasenbalg family today. I pray they encourage you in your own difficulties. This is an adapted message taken from the devotional Echoes of Eternity.
Kerry,
Thank you for sharing that devotional...EXACTLY what this tired mama's heart needed to hear. I will persevere in my prayers for my 15-year old's heart; please join me in praying that God would mercifully draw her nearer to Himself today. Love you!

He is Mighty to Save, INDEED! Thanks for that.

Hello Kerry,
They are encouraging words for me as well. My wife and I are on the verge of having our first baby! We have tried for 4.5 years, unexplained infertility. She is due Aug 12th, and we are so excited (and nervous a bit)
you may not remember but you prayed for us a while ago. I just thought I'd let you know the great news!

I think all Christians emphasize that Jesus is the Saviour of the world and through his death the sins of mankind have been forgiven
