Prayers of Adoration

Thank You Father that You work all things together for good for Your children. Thank You for our troubles because You work them for good too. They are from your loving hand though they hurt. Please make us get the benefit of them. You know what You are doing; You know how to make a man; You know how to make a woman. Give us strength in Your Spirit to suffer joyfully and to place all our hopes and fears in Your most competent and faithful hands.

Father, we are not worthy to be Your children but You have taken all our sin and put it on Jesus. Evil spirits and evil men conspired to kill Him but You planned it all from the beginning. You crushed Him. You made Him suffer the most horrendous evil in all creation and turned it into the most glorious revelation of Your character. You are the God who hates evil and destroys it utterly. You are the God who takes that destruction upon Himself in love to save us from it. You do not spare Your own son but graciously give Him up for us all. Thank You Father. Amen.
