Praise!
My dear beloved Youth in Christ,

'I know, LORD, that our lives are not our own.
 We are not able to plan our own course.
 So correct me, LORD, but please be gentle.
  Do not correct me in anger, for I would die.'
— Jeremiah 10:23-24 NLT

God's ability to direct our lives well is infinitely beyond our ability. Sometimes we are afraid of God's power and God's plans because we know his power would easily crush us if he used it against us.

Don't be afraid to let God correct your plans. He will give you wisdom if you are willing.

Father, my Creator, let Your Gentle Hands and Overwhelming Strength be with me as You break  and test me in the fire of suffering.
In Your Holy Name, Amen.
Lord Jesus loves you!
