Magnify, Amplify, Multiply

 

Be fruitful and multiply....

        Genesis 1. 28

(God provides each of us

a new way to approach

and navigate this new year.

He changes our hearts

    and our vision

in these appointed moments

   to not just see difficulties

                   differently

   but to see Him differently.

Our path may not change,

    but we do.

We are strengthened

  by walking with Him in it.

Do we see the hard stuff

      as difficulty

or as opportunity

   to do something more?

Enlarge, expand, increase,

deepen,

and amplify His goodness

    on this patch of ground

and in this moment in time.)

O LORD,

As we venture into new horizons

    or walk faithfully in the familiar,

we ask for strong legs, 

willing hands,

   and a new heart in this.

Grant to us Your wisdom

   and strength.

Nudge us to see this hard situation

   and impossible relationships,

not as they appear on the surface,

but as an opportunity

    to be faithful to You.

Be magnified through us.

Bring Your fruitfulness and glory

   to all we undertake today.
