Daily Devotion - Friday, August 26

As the Work Week Ends

As we close another week in the workplace and anticipate the renewal that comes from a time where the rhythm of life changes, we’ve examined ways that we live and ways that God jumps into our living with a steadfast loving embrace. The following is a favorite hymn of millions and your mind deserves to hear it throughout the day. Here are the words; the melody will come to your mind as you read:

“Amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wreck like me
I once was lost but now am found was blind but now I see.

“‘Tis grace that taught my heart to fear and grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear the hour I first believed.”


A merciful God accepts you at the very point where you are in your pilgrimage. Why not be still enough to at least experience the embrace of steadfast love. Have a blessed day and a wonderful weekend.

A prayer: God, be with me in my tension moments and slow me to experience a couple of moments of quiet. Amen.
