Bring us back to you, and we will come back.
You are the Lord our God. ~ Jeremiah 31:18b (NIRV)
(The other criminal who was hanged there, said,) “Jesus, remember me when you begin ruling as king!” ~ Luke 23:42 (ERV)
Jesus, if we've learned anything through all the difficulties of life it is this -- we can't fix things on our own. We cannot repair the damage we have done. We need you. You are the expert at restoring lives. Please remember me and my situation. Please pull me closer to you. I need to be near you -- even when I'm tugging the other direction. Erase the rebellion, the doubt, the shame, the guilt, and the pain so that people will clearly hear me when I acknowledge you as the king. Amen.
Since 2015, I've been modeling one way of using the MORAVIAN DAILY TEXTS* to maintain a daily conversation with God.
