1 Passage: Zechariah 1:2-6
1 Verse: Verse 3. "Therefore say to them, 'Thus says the LORD of hosts, "Return to Me," declares the LORD of hosts, "that I may return to you," says the LORD of hosts.
1 Prayer: The idea of returning to You, Father, can sometimes be rather frightening. Here we read of Your anger overtaking evildoers and we wonder if the same may be our fate. Yet, even they repented when Your word caught up with them. Will I? Thank You for making the constant and repeated invitation to return. I need not fear coming back to You -- guilty as I am -- because You will do all that You have purposed to do, and I know Your purposes are all for good. Help me, then, today to be quick to return to You and to be mindful of the many ways in which You are turning also to me.

Psalm 46:1-11
1 Passage: Psalm 46:1-11
1 Verse: Verse 10. "Cease striving and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth."
1 Prayer: Thank You, Father, for the comfort these verses bring. You are God, therefore I can relax, let go, be still, cease striving. You will accomplish Your will in and through and for me. And most of all for Your own glory. It isn't up to me, yet there is work for me to do, too. Help me to contribute my part, not out of obligation or fear, but in love and gratitude and appreciation for the opportunity to live as Your Lordship makes possible -- in full and complete confidence of Your ultimate victory and triumph over all evil.
