Reading: PSALM 42
Morning:
Reading: PSALM 42.
Meditation: as we pause with Jesus, we take time to consider these words.
“My soul is downcast within me; therefore, I will remember you”
And then pray to this God.
Lord God, the world can sometimes be dark place,
where we can feel that the storm of life is drowning us.
When we feel defeated, we turn to You.
Although we sometimes forget You,
You never forget us.
All we need to do is say, ‘Father’
and You will restore our hope,
In Jesus’ name, amen.
Midday:
Pray the words of the Lord’s Prayer as your own prayer today.
Our Father, who art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy name.
Thy Kingdom come.
Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts,
as we forgive our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the Kingdom,
the power and the glory, forever.
Amen.
Evening:
Read the verses again from PSALM 42.
Reflect and pray in response to what you read.
Lord Jesus, we praise You.
Our Saviour and our King,
we need not suffer unnecessarily,
for You are our hope.
You life us up from the deepest depths
and set up steady on Your rock.
In Your name, amen.
