Let’s pray as we prepare to hear God’s word. This prayer flows from Psalm 119, the section entitled KAAF. Let’s pray. Father, we, our souls, long for your salvation. And we long to hope in your word. Our eyes long for your promise. And yet at times we find we ask, When will you comfort us? For we have become like a wine skin in the smoke, and yet we have not forgotten your statutes.
