GOD, are you avoiding me?
Where are you when I need you?
MARK 4:38 (ABP)
Jesus seemed oblivious to the situation and was napping on a cushion in the stern. The panicked apprentices finally woke him, “Teacher, don’t you care that we’re about to die?”
SUMMARY SENTENCE
The questions are real but the answers are even more real.
PRAYER
Heavenly Father, sometimes I feel alone, frightened, and abandoned. However, the promises within your word assure me that you will never leave me. My heart is filled with gratitude that you will respond to my cries for help. You take my hand and walk me through the storms of life. Help me to be a calming presence to someone today. Amen. (Daily Texts, Ground Up Grace edition)
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.
