Today’s Verse:
"But Jesus made no reply, not even to a single charge—to the great amazement of the governor. " Matt 27:14

Prayer for Today :

Heavenly Father,

Don't we all love to prove that we are right? Sometimes, because of this, we will speak to friends or family in a louder and louder voice...we want them to agree with us, we want to be righteous?! Father, we are called to love our neighbours, we do love our friends and family, so why should we hurt each other by arguing? Is proving who is right or wrong more important? Or is remain in harmony and in love more important?

Father, grant us wisdom in speech, help us to analyse the situation, and decide how to response to people who tried to accuse us. If we love really the people we argued with, Father, grant us preserverance to get through the situation by learning to make "no reply". Father, help us to give our burden to You, if we still feel pain or grief inside us by being "silent".

Father, You love us and You want us to live in happiness. As it is written "I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with loving-kindness."

Thankyou Father for loving us, so that we have strength to love others.

In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.
