Ah, Lord God, this day and age is not so very different from the time of the judges; everyone does what is right in his own eyes. We have become so "caught up" in this life, we have forgotten You and trusted in the lies being offered up so readily by the world around us. Forgive us, O Lord. May Your people be roused from their torpor and turn toward You. May we rise up and sojourn where we may find a place to worship, walk in Your love and listen to Your Voice once again. We have given Your glory to hundreds of little gods and have been brought into darkness. Our feet stumble on the twilight mountains and while we look for light, it turns into gloom and deep darkness. Awaken us to the light of Your love and the truth and sensibility of Your commands. Set us back on Your path, O Light of the nations.
Genesis 22.12-18; Jeremiah 13.15-16, 25; 2 John 6
