The Second Sunday after Epiphany
PSALM 105:4 (NLT)
Search for the LORD and for his strength;
continually seek him.
LUKE 11:10 (CEB)
Everyone who asks, receives. Whoever seeks, finds. To everyone who knocks, the door is opened.
SUMMARY SENTENCE
Those who make their lives about seeking out the Lord will be successful in their pursuit.
PRAYER
I'm grateful God that, even though you call us to spend our lives seeking out you and your will, you don't play hide-n-seek games with us. You are eager to show us all that we need to see. I confess that I want to know more than I need to know and that I can get worked up over what is unknown to me. Help me to focus on searching for you. I'm going to trust that as I connect with you, what I need will become clear. Amen.
THE LORD'S PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your Name. Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and forever. Amen.
