John 14:1-6

1 Passage: John 14:1-6

1 Verse:
Verse 3. "If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am, there you may be also."

1 Prayer:
Thank You, Father, for having a house with many rooms. Thank You for having a room prepared for me. Thank You for the promise that, just as Jesus is preparing a place for me with Him, He will also come and receive me into it so that we can be together forever. Help me to remember that, while I am alive on this earth, I am out of place. I don't belong here. Despite how hard I try to fit in, to get comfortable, to make myself a home, my real place is with You and I will be with You there forever. I want to be where You are. Thank You for wanting me to be there, too. Help me today to be where You are by faith. Let not my heart be troubled.

1 Verse: Verse 1 Do not let your heart be troubled; believe in God, believe also in Me.

1 Prayer: Lord, at times it is so difficult to not allow my heart to be troubled. I feel selfish sometimes when I think that I can solve all my problems even though I know that I cant. Allow me to give up my troubles and trust you to help me get through rough times.

God, you know how easily I let anxiety get the best of me. You know how quickly my heart turns to worrying, instead of turning to you first. God, help me believe in you, and trust you, more than the worrying. I dont want anxiety to have the power over me that I so often let it. Show me how to give it all to you, and please give me peace to know it is in your mighty hands.
