{Psalm 62:5-7; NLT}
Let all that I am wait quietly before God, for my hope is in him.
He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress where I will not be shaken.
My victory and honor come from God alone. He is my refuge, a rock where no enemy can reach me.
Heavenly Father, You alone are holy and gracious. May Your name be praised throughout this world and may people from every nation find hope through Your love and forgiveness.
Jesus, in You alone do I place my trust. There is so much uncertainty in this world, and people who claim to be trustworthy prove that they cannot be trusted. In You alone do I find my hope. Politics, people, and organizations let me down, but Your resurrection proves there is a reason to have hope.
Lord, I ask that You will flood this world with Your hope. Help people to find life, forgiveness, and purpose in Your Word. In this world filled with doubt, confusion, and hopelessness may people discover You as their rock and refuge. In You alone, Christ Jesus, may people find hope.
It is in the name of Jesus that I pray, amen.
