In The Presence of the Lord There Is Comfort

Dear Lord, You are ever-present and Your Spirit comforts our souls. How we praise You! If only we could stay in Your Word all day. But Lord, let Your Word cling to our hearts and remind us of Your Truth as we go about our days so we can enjoy You all the more.

We pray for Your servants in schools to have Your comfort throughout their daily work.  Lord, You alone know the weariness or even dread teachers can experience as they are impacted by the immature or selfish actions of their students and others. Lift their souls to meditate on Your Word and Your goodness. Stay with us as we travel this rocky road so we may hear Your Word welling up in our souls.

We thank You, Lord, that we can dwell in Your presence. Make us realize Your present blessings as we seek You through our difficulties, for in Your presence there is joy. Give us a fresh experience of Your full circle of protection for Your people, laying Your hand of peace and guidance upon us, and filling our hearts beyond comprehension. Encourage us that the darkness of the world will never cover us because You are light and You’re always with us. Work mightily to shine Your light through us as we work with the souls before us. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen. Ps 21:6; Ps 139:1-12; Ps 140:12-13; Luk 24:29
