When we look to ourselves and our feeble attempt to live up to God’s standard we have no place to go but our knees.  Who can stand before a righteous and holy God? 

His Word gives us the only true hope; Jesus Christ and his finished work at the cross.  He is mighty but also merciful with  the power to redeem through His son. We are fully content placing  our trust in Him as we wait and watch for his return.  We are more diligent than even the night watchman who waits for morning.  
Personal Reflection

When we watch for Jesus’ return we also see God at work now in our life and the lives of people around us.  Take time today to unplug from all the busyness and stress of life and write down some things you see God doing.  It may be small evidences of His grace or things that can’t be explained by man’s wisdom.  

Prayer Focus

Gracious God, we praise you for your lovingkindness.  Without out it we would be left with only the judgement we deserve.  For you have redeemed us and called us by name.  You have given us the great honor of being your children.  May we glorify you in all that we say and do, now and forever more, in the Name of Jesus, Amen!
