Good morning…
As our son and a full row of twenty-year-old friends watched their classmates paying tribute at their best friend’s funeral, I wondered to myself, “Lord, in what ways is your Spirit sinking into their hearts? How are you helping these young adults to process this unexpected loss? Somehow, some way, is your comforting presence becoming more real to each of them?”
Now up in the middle of the night, this grieving group of young people come back to my mind. Having seen and talked with many of them after the service, I pray that you continue to deepen their dependency upon you, day after day. Within each heart, I hope that this prayer might open an honest conversation with you.
God, investigate my life; get all the facts firsthand. I’m an open book to you; even from a distance, you know what I’m thinking. You know when I leave and when I get back; I’m never out of your sight. You know everything I’m going to say before I start the first sentence. I look behind me and you’re there, then up ahead and you’re there, too — your reassuring presence, coming and going. This is too much, too wonderful — I can’t take it all in! (Psalm 139:1-6, MSG).
Dear Lord, please help us to gradually take in your reassuring presence, bit by bit. May you awaken in each of us a conversational relationship.
…Sue…
P.S. For those in the Atlanta area, our twenty year old, Jeremiah, is offering his services again. Please reach out to him if he can be of help to you.
