One of my go-to prayers in crisis is Ps 57. I’d like to read verses 1-2 over you & yours in regard to Covid & over the suffering & grieving people of Haiti and the terrified and vulnerable people in Afghanistan. “Be gracious to me, God, be gracious to me for I take refuge in you.
Jesus knew it all
He knew my every sin
Every mistake
And every single regret
And yet chose to die on a cross, knowing I may never love Him back.
What a precious, relentless love that is

- left a rental property without thoroughly deep cleaning it
- moved out without a landlord trying to charge me for at least some cleaning
- moved in anywhere totally clean
For others to meet the reality of Jesus in our lives, we must be women of carefully chosen words. Because what comes out of our mouths is a telltale sign of who we are, Who we serve, and what we truly believe.
Lord, may the words we speak reveal that we truly do belong to You.
