Everlasting Foundation

The fears of the wicked will be fulfilled;
    the hopes of the godly will be granted.

When the storms of life come, the wicked are whirled away,
    but the godly have a lasting foundation.

—Proverbs 10:24 (NLT)

Everlasting Father,

Thank You for being the eternal and unchanging foundation upon which my life is built.

Thank You that I don’t share in the fears of evil people—fears that torment them through this life and then drag them to the horrible death that lies before them for eternity.

Thank You that because I stand in Christ’s righteousness and hope in His salvation, I don’t have to fear anything that comes in this life, here on earth—or in my new life that awaits me there with You forever.

Thank You that I am not left without Your truth to hold on to when the storms of life come—whirled away like the wicked in hopelessness and despair.

Thank You that, because You are always working for my good, the storms of life can only serve to make me stronger—more securely established on the foundation of Your everlasting love.

Thank You for being the eternal and unchanging foundation upon which my life is built.

In the name of Jesus, Amen.
