Sometimes,
Lord, Your blessing seems to be "so near and yet so far." Help us,
Lord, as we seek Your blessing, to remember that it is never our own
achievement. It is always Your gift to us. We do not achieve victory in
our own strength. You give to us Your victory. When, Lord, we feel like
we are in a barren wilderness, help us to remember that the place of
testing can become the place of triumph - when we put our trust in You.
By Your grace, Lord, You call us to be Your soldiers and servants. Help us not to be "fearful and fainthearted" (Deuteronomy 19:19). Help us to be "good soldiers of Jesus Christ" (2 Timothy 2:3). When we hear your challenging question: "Who is on the Lord's side?", may we give our committed answer: "By Thy call of mercy, by Thy grace divine, we are on the Lord's side; Saviour, we are Thine."
