I am in the midst of lions;
I lie among ravenous beasts—
men whose teeth are spears and arrows,
whose tongues are sharp swords. . .
When I am afraid,
I will trust in you (Psalm 57:4; 56:3 NIV).

Lord, I am horrified when I observe the people in this world,
when I hear their lies.
They speak evil as if it were truth.
They slander the innocent and praise the wicked.
They attack the righteous.
Everything is upside down.

Dear Lord, set Your creation in order.
Destroy the corrupt; make all things new.

Dear Jesus, when the end days come,
help me be courageous, because
I know the outcome.
I will welcome You when You come in glory.
Come quickly, Lord Jesus. Amen.
