Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ!
Let us take a moment to sit and rest with Jesus, the spring of living water
We offer you a song and a simple prayer

Today we meditate on Psalm 27

A simple prayer for guidance as we wander

Lord of all wisdom and understanding,
we sit at your feet,
hungry for your teaching.
Truly your guidance
is more precious than rubies,
your presence 
more than fine pearls.
The ways and wisdom
of our world we count as nothing,
as mere human knowledge
before your ways.

As a signpost in the desert,
as a map in the hills,
as a blaze on the trail,
reveal to us your way.

We have been lost before,
wanderers drifting here and there,
searching out our own way.
Enemies and obstacles
have hindered us before.
Our heart said, 'seek His face,'
though you were not always easy to find.
Even still, Lord, in our present wandering
we trust in your voice,
in your great mercy for us,
that you will call to us
in ways we might understand.
As water to the thirsty.

Do not hide your face from us
in our great need.
You have been our helper
from times of old,
sheltering us in days of trouble.
Do so again, Father.

This alone do we ask,
that we may dwell
in your house forever,
gazing upon your beauty,
our feet set firmly on the Rock.

Even in the wild,
we remain confident of this:
We will see the goodness of the Lord
in the land of the living.
Wait for the Lord;
be strong and take heart
and wait for the Lord.

Praise His Holy Name
