Lord Jesus, on difficult days, and on easy days, help us to keep our eyes on You for in You we find hope. On difficult days, and on easy days, help us to put our trust in You our Good Shepherd. When days are hard and we struggle to cope with life, You are always there to help and guide us
Help us to slow down and not to panic, to listen for Your voice speaking to us. You have assured us: "My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand"
Thank You for Your Word. It is a great comfort to know that "no one" can steal us from You, we cannot be snatched. There is no greater assurance than this. "Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me." This promise is for all who trust in You
Thank You that: "All the ways of the Lord are loving and faithful toward those who keep the demands of his covenant." Your demands are not a heavy burden, in fact quite the opposite, as You say: "Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light." There is no better way than Your Way. Thank You for showing us the right path
Amen

Monday 3rd November
Heavenly Father, thank You for the strength that comes from Your Spirit. The Psalmists knew this very well, declaring: "I love You, Lord, my strength... God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble... The Lord is my strength and my defense; He has become my salvation"
The prophet Isaiah knew this too: "But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not faint"
And You said to St Paul: "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." I am certainly aware of my weakness and I am so grateful for Your strength. I couldn't say that at the moment I am soaring "on wings like eagles," but I know that will happen in Your own good time
At present I am resting in Your presence, as You told Moses: "My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest." And David again: "In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, Lord, make me dwell in safety... when I awake, I am still with You.. I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord"
Thank You, Lord, for the gift of rest and sleep. As I sleep You will strengthen me so I am ready to face the challenges of the day
Amen
