No Words Necessary

In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans.—Romans 8:26 (NIV)

From Sorrow to Strength

Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?”—John 11:25–26 (NIV)

Loving God, when I am in the midst of pain and loss, may the peace of Your presence surround me.
