There are many times throughout scripture, O God, that you tell us you will give us the words we need at the moment. May we have faith in those times and confidence to speak out in love. Scripture is filled with stories of people accomplishing amazing things through having faith that you will guide them and you have give us the Holy Spirit as that guide and companion. Help us to listen to that small voice that we often hear giving us a nudge in the right direction. May we then respond in faith and follow where you are leading the way. Let us set down the burdens that are weighing us down and run the race you have set before us. We look to you, the God who creates, redeems and sanctifies. Amen
