Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
– Luke 21:36
This is a powerful verse to begin and end the day with. This verse carries that steady, watchful hope, not fear for Jesus is nearby. Not panic, but readiness rooted in prayer. It’s Jesus reminding His people to stay awake spiritually, to stay tender, to stay connected to Him so that whatever comes, we’re standing in His strength, not our own. After everything we’ve been carrying, family burdens, boundaries, heartbreak, loss, responsibility or whatever the case may be a verse like this lands differently. It’s almost like He’s whispering: “Stay close to Me. I see what you’ve walked through. I’ll make you able to stand.” You’re not watching the world alone. You’re not praying into the dark. You’re held, seen, and strengthened. Wishing you a peaceful warm day and a rested heart.
