Lord, forgive me when my faith is lacking.

I know Your word is true and Your promises are sure. So, why do I worry and fret? Why do I spend my time doubting? Why do I allow the wickedness of this world to rob me of my joy?

Our hearts long for “what is right”. We look for it from our leaders, but it’s not there. We hope for it from those who make decisions for the people, but our hope is in vain. The evil persist.

So, where does our hope come from? From You and You only. You alone are the Righteous One. You only Lord can make all things right.

Wicked men laugh, they celebrate their evil victories thinking they have won. Foolish men. Do they not realize that there is a new day coming? Soon their laughter will turn to cries of terror for their day of reckoning is coming.

Lord, strengthen my faith.
