remember me and care for me.

16 When your words came, I ate them;
they were my joy and my heart’s delight,
for I bear your name,
Lord God Almighty.
17 I never sat in the company of revelers,
never made merry with them;
I sat alone because your hand was on me
and you had filled me with indignation.

and my wound grievous and incurable?
You are to me like a deceptive brook,
like a spring that fails.

PRAYER

God,

When we are overwhelmed by loneliness, restore these words of comfort to our hearts. Remind us to connect with You above all us. Restore relationships with other brothers and sisters of Christ in our lives that we may restore your Kingdom side by side. Bring non believers into our lives that we may live out the calling You have for us to “go into the world and share the good news of Jesus”. When people connect with us, may that connection show them that God loves them. May it restore connection in our hearts that we are loved and that we are known. Then the world will know that You sent us and You love them even as You love us

Amen
