Prayer: Gracious God at this time in the world we all need to turn to you. Please give us peace and patience. Help us love one another. Give those who are working hard the strength they need. Give those who are sick the care they seek. Give those at home the comfort they long for. Amen.
Reading: Psalm 16 (Click to read text) Stop and GROW: After reading the text, discuss/ponder the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America's Book of Faith questions, which are part of Camp Mount Luther's GROW Time with campers. QUESTION 1: What scares, confuses, challenges, or doesn’t make sense to me in this text? QUESTION 2: What delights me in this text or is my favorite part of the story? QUESTION 3: What stories or memories does this text stir in me? QUESTION 4: What is God up to in this text? Reflection: This time of COVID 19 is a strange one for us. The Psalmist turned to God to help him and knew that God would be with him the whole time. I believe this Psalm is a great one for us to read daily during this time. God is with us and comforts us. God is all we need. God cares for us. We can pray to the Lord and know that God listens. I hope during this time, especially if you are struggling, you reach out to God and to others around you who can help. Remember we are in this together and God can guide us through. --Charlene Rineer
