“But blessed are those who trust in the Lord and have made the Lord their hope and confidence.
Jeremiah 17:7
He gives power to the weak and strength to the powerless.
Isaiah 40:29
Each time he said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me.
2 Corinthians 12:9
Almighty God, today we pray for power. We pray not for the capacity to do whatever we want or to manipulate and defeat others, but for the capacity to enact change, to stand for justice, and to actively love ourselves, our neighbors, and our world. Amen.
