Day 14

               Be still my soul, and help me feel the presence of your Holy Spirit. Oh Jesus, I know You hold not only the past and future but the present in Your mighty hands. How could You allow those same hands to be pierced when You were completely holy and blameless? It is beyond grace and love the path You choose to redeem me from myself and sin. My deeds that I strive to do fall so far short of what You have done and accomplished. And yet I am prone to fall into the trap of working towards greater grace and goodness in Your eyes. Help me to see the folly of doing better and rely on You and Your once and for all gift. Remove the tiredness and the struggle of striving and let me rest in the comfort of Your completeness. In Your name I pray.
