Scripture
1 Chronicles 16:8-11
Give praise to the Lord, proclaim his name;
make known among the nations what he has done.
Sing to him, sing praise to him;
tell of all his wonderful acts.
Glory in his holy name;
let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice.
Look to the Lord and his strength;
seek his face always.

Application
Did you ever notice on the darkest of stormy days you can still see outside? You can still see the stormy clouds. You can see the rain or the wind blowing things around. Why is that? The storm is raging, but darkness did not overcome the light. The sun is still there. It hasn’t left us. It is pushing its way through the storm and shining its rays of hope. You know what? In the storms of your life, the SON is still there. He is also pushing his rays of hope through. He will prevail. Keep yours eyes on the sky! His face will soon be shining bright with a smile just for you!
Prayer
Lord, I am seeking your face! Thank you for your warm smile. You always brighten my day. ~Amen
