Psalms 86:1-17. Verse 1 KJV, what’s involved in God bowing down his ear to hear my prayer? What does it say about him? What does it invite me to hope for?
Jeremiah !:1-19. Verses 6-10, what am I facing right now that seems beyond my human capabilities? What does God say to that?
Hebrews 13:18-25. Verses 20 and 21, related question, realizing that the crucified and risen Lord Jesus has charge of me as his own sheep, how can I approach today differently?
Matthew 9:18-26. A desperate woman and a dying girl. What lessons are here for me about seeking Christ and then sharing Christ?
