Look Up!Sample

As we think about those we love, our family, our friends, classmates, colleagues, and neighbours, we can probably agree we want only good things to happen to these people. In the biblical text for today, it says that the Lord also wants the best for us and offers us his protection. The Psalm ends with a promise that the Lord will keep your coming and going, now and forever.

God’s protection isn’t just for big, dramatic moments – it’s for your everyday life. Whether you’re at school, home or with friends, God is guiding you. Today, ‘look up’ to him in small things. Before you make decisions, even simple ones, ask God for guidance and see how he leads you.

Let us pray:

Dear God, we praise you because we know that you love us and want the best for us. We put our family and friends in your hands. Amen

Reach out to a friend, a neighbour, a classmate – let them know that you appreciate their presence in your life and that you are praying for them. Ask if there is anything specific they would like you to pray for.
