"...Mary stood without... weeping...and as she wept, she stooped down, and looked into the sepulchre...Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him, “Sir...if you have taken him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will go and get him.”Mary! Jesus said.She turned herself, and saith unto him, Rabboni; which is to say, Master...Jesus...stood in the midst, and saith...Peace be unto you."- Excerpt from John 20.Merciful Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, we thank you for your peace and presence: especially during our moments of uncertainty and sorrow.Immanuel, God with us, your life-giving healing, Holy Word reminds us that even when we think we have figured out a plan to help you carry out the promises you have made to us...you have already blessed us with the miracle: we only need have faith in YOU; we must watch and pray. Abba Father, we thank you for the wonderfully talented brain and body that you have equipped us with, but moreover, we are thankful for your continuous assurance that it is not by our strength, or knowledge that allows us to receive the fullness of God Almighty, but our belief in your faithfulness- Hebrews 11:6.We thank you for allowing us to see your glory.We thank you for blessing us even through doubt.We repent of our sin.We receive your unconditional love, and your peace that surpasses all understanding.We thank you for being acquainted intimately with the desires of our heart, and the longings of our entire being: and answering. We forgive and receive forgiveness. We receive all of the special miracles, promises, answered prayers, and blessings that you have for us.Jesus is the Lord.Amen."Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her hands."- Proverbs 14:1."And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer, and while they are yet speaking, I will hear."- Isaiah 65:24.
