Lent: Journey According To LukeSample

LORD, BUT JUST SAY YOUR WORD DEVOTION Living in this world gives us many problems, troubles and difficulties that we must break through. Sometimes coping with them is far beyond our ability. We all need help from our Lord Jesus for those problems in our life. However we do not give our Lord a chance to say his word. Of course we pray but we need to listen to what he says. In this world we lead such complicated lives and are so busy that we often cannot hear his voice. We try to speak to the Lord through our prayers. We keep saying our words. It is time for us to let the Lord say his word. Faith must be simple like that of the centurion in today’s scripture. We have to listen carefully and in a focused way to the Lord. If Jesus says his word it will be done. Let us cut off all the unnecessary branches of our life so that we can bear much fruit. Let us stay tuned on the channel of Jesus. Let the Lord say his word about our life problems. There is the solution. Be absolutely positive. FOR REFLECTION • Who are the people, or what issues do we need to bring before the Lord today? • What is God saying to you this Lent about the ways you could make evident your faith in him? PRAYER Thank you gracious God, that you hear our prayer. You know our situation. Speak your Word to us now and when we hear that word grant us faith to follow, to act in obedience to your call. In the name of Jesus. Amen.
