Today we have been reminded that God invites us to walk with him through this journey we call life. With all of our faults and failures, all of our doubts, and fears, and worries. Aren't you glad that he invites us to come just as we are?! Aren't you glad that he doesn't leave us as we are?!
One of the themes we'll be exploring this week is that of yearning. How much do we want to grow closer to Jesus? How fervently are we willing to seek and serve the Lord? This week will give us a chance to remember that we've been invited into relationship but that God wants to transform us by the renewing of our minds.
Here's a short, but humbling prayer we might consider praying regularly, "Loving God, I will be open to what you say I need before I tell you what I think I need."
