So many of my friends are going through health challenges, grief and disappointments. Yesterday, many athletes were told they cannot compete for a championship; even schools and church services are being suspended. This is a very difficult time, but a good time for each one of us to turn to God for direction, wisdom, peace and strength.
When the Jews were exiled from Jerusalem to Babylon, it was a dark time for them. Within a letter that the prophet Jeremiah sent to those who were exiled, he reminded them of what God had told him:
“When you call on me, when you come and pray to me, I’ll listen.”
Jeremiah 29:12 MSG)
Let’s all pray…for the sick, the disappointed, the decision makers and those who are confused and don’t know where to turn.
“You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.”
(Jeremiah 29:13)
