Episode 334: Jeremiah 8

Today's Prayer Meditation is on Jeremiah 8

When I fall, I get up again. When I discover I'm on the wrong road, I turn back. I do not stay on a self-destructive path, refusing to turn around. I embrace your truth, not lies. I confess my sins and repent. I have come home to you.

Any wisdom that I have, has come from your word, Father. I do not practice empty, religious rituals. They are like superficial treatments for mortal wounds. They offer peace, but there is no peace to be found through them. 

I do not allow greed to corrupt me, or lust for what I don't deserve. I thank you, Father, that you don't give me what I deserve. But you have given me so much more. I could never earn it. It was a grace gift. 

I hoped for peace, and peace came. I prayed for healing, and received it. When it seemed that my grief was beyond healing, you comforted me. When my heart was broken, you mended it and made it whole again. 

You hurt when I hurt. When I was overcome with grief, you mourned. You longed to bring me close and restore me. My hope is found in you alone. 

So be it.

Until next time, be blessed and be a blessing.
