Lent day 24
Friday
Theme: Wait
Scripture
Psalm 130
I call out to you, Lord.
Won’t you please listen
as I beg for mercy?
|
If you kept record of our sins,
no one could last long.
But you forgive us,
and so we will worship you.
|
With all my heart,
I am waiting, Lord, for you!
I trust your promises.
I wait for you more eagerly
than a soldier on guard duty
waits for the dawn.
Yes, I wait more eagerly
than a soldier on guard duty
waits for the dawn.
|
Israel, trust the Lord!
He is always merciful,
and he has the power
to save you.
Israel, the Lord will save you
from all of your sins.

Reflection prompts
- When you think of the word free, what comes to mind?
- What things in this world prevent you from being free—spiritually, mentally and emotionally?
Prayer
Holy God, I am waiting for the sun to rise. I am waiting for the day with no more
pain. I am waiting for peace and joy like a river. So as I wait, give me the will to
move my feet. I will watch for morning. I will watch for morning. Amen. —
