to show mercy each morning." [Lamentations 3:23, Contemporary English Version] for Thursday, 15 January 2015
Good Morning, Ministry Partner:
Be Encouraged by God's Word:
When the poor and needy seek water,
and there is none,
and their tongue is parched with thirst,
I the Lord will answer them,
I the God of Israel will not forsake them.
I will open rivers on the bare heights,
and fountains in the midst of the valleys;
I will make the wilderness a pool of water,
and the dry land springs of water.[Isaiah 41:17-18, NRSV]
Wisdom from Fellow Pilgrims:
Just because we don't understand doesn't mean that the explanation doesn't exist.[Madeleine L'engle]
Pray Together with Us"
Nothing seems to be moving,
It is still-so very still,
We cannot feel the world around us;
We do not hear the people around us,
We do not care,
We do not listen,
We want to be by ourselves.
Lord:
Lead us from indifference to solicitude;
Lead us from insensitivity to sympathy;
Lead us from inertia to alertness.
Lord, we want to care, we want to hear.[M. A. Thomas]
