"How long, O Lord?" 

"I will wait for you, Lord."

Both of these sentiments match the reality of the one who is deeply rooted in the presence of God - we are free to ask God our deepest, most painful questions and wait for him to answer in gentleness and compassion. We must only make the time to slow down, speak to God, and listen to his voice. How might we need to cry out to the Lord, to open our hearts and pour them out to him, and to wait for him to speak? Join us today as we anchor ourselves in Psalm 13.

Psalm 27 is a rich and profound prayer, with piercing relevance for us in these days. Through this song-prayer, we're invited to face and name our fears, bring them to God who is good, kind, and compassionate and want us to come to him in worship just as we are. Responding to the invitation from God Almighty requires us only to wait - to slow down, take several deep breaths, and listen for the Spirit to apply the Word of God to the depths of our hearts. Listen as we read and reflect on Psalm 27.

Day two of 30 days focused on abiding with Jesus through scripture and prayer. Today, we meditate on Psalm 23 and practice slowing down, and breathing in and out, and letting the Spirit of God take the Word of God more deeply into our hearts. 

This is the first episode of a 30-day, daily spiritual formation podcast to guide us through the official end of the stay-at-home order due to the novel Coronavirus and COVID-19 in the state of Virginia. Each day from Monday-Saturday (taking off Sundays) will have a short, less than ten-minute episode, focused on scripture and prayer. Episode 01 is an invitation to embrace rhythms of renewal, so that we might be rooted deep in Christ, like a tree planted next to a stream of living water.
