Prayer: O Lord our protector and guide we praise you and thank you. In our times of trouble and struggle we call to you. Help us through by giving us peace and comfort. Amen.
Reading: Psalm 121 (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: Psalms are some of my favorite scriptures to read when I need comforting. Some of them share my times of lamenting and some of them give praise to God. My all-time favorite Psalm is Psalm 100 because of the praising God and singing which are two of my favorite things to do. Many people use Psalm 23 when they are stressed and struggling. The Psalm for today’s devotion is a great one to reminder us that God is there to help us and protect us. As I look at the world around us, I need to be reminded of God being with us wherever we go at all times. Hopefully the Psalms can also comfort you when you are weary of whatever is around you. --Charlene Rineer
