The Burden of the Word

The burden of the word of the Lord to Israel by Malachi.—Malachi 1:1 (NKJV)

Lord, I willingly hold Your messages deep in my heart and will follow Your guiding Word. I understand the great importance You hold in my life.

Jesus’ Prayer of Trust

Jesus called out with a loud voice, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.” When he had said this, he breathed his last.—Luke 23:46 (NIV)
