Prayer List
Friends,
This Lenten season we are exploring questions that deepen our faith, that help us foster deeper relationships with God and with one another, and our planet.
Hope you join us on this journey of healing, transformation, and renewal!
Today I invite you to reflect on this question:
The disciples seek answers and clarity from Jesus. What answers do you seek?
Ever-present God, I have dozens of questions bubbling up inside me—how, and why, and for how long? I know your love is not a magic eight ball, spitting out pithy answers to the world’s wonderings, so I will keep bringing my questions to you. I will keep asking. I will keep seeking, and I trust that you will meet me in the middle. With hope for your promised day I pray, amen.
