Psalm 127:1-5 ESV - 1 Unless the LORD builds the house, those who build it labor in vain. Unless the LORD watches over the city, the watchman stays awake in vain. 2 It is in vain that you rise up early and go late to rest, eating the bread of anxious toil; for he gives to his beloved sleep. 3 Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD, the fruit of the womb a reward. 4 Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one's youth. 5 Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them! He shall not be put to shame when he speaks with his enemies in the gate.
Father, Thank You for my family. I know that it is a gift of Your mercy. Help me to be a godly mother/sister/aunt/friend to others in Your family. Oh, Lord, build up our church. Keep our leaders faithful to Your Word. Thank You for giving me work and purpose. Help me not to deceive myself by thinking that “I did it–it’s all because of me”. Help me to remember that rest is also a gift of Your mercy. You are the Sovereign. You rule over all creation. You are my Father. I praise You.
