Turning to God in Prayer

August 6, 2024 Emily Arthur

Living the Gospel this week: Turning to God in Prayer

The book of Job says: “Surrender your heart to God, turn to him in prayer…” (Job 11: 13-19)

In our daily lives, we might feel afraid or lost, despair, threatened by the storms of life. Let’s turn to God in prayer. When the disciples felt threatened by the outrage of the sea and the heavy storm, they cried to Jesus. Just as they did, we can cry out to Him too. He hears us and will help us. With the letter to the Hebrews, "So we may boldly say: “The LORD is my helper; I will not fear. What can man do to me?” (Hebrews 13:6)

Let us remember that Jesus is always with us, even in the most difficult moments of our lives. He is our peace and our strength. By trusting in Him, we find the courage to face any challenge. (Psalm 119:71)

Prayer

The Holy Mother of God helps me to trust in the power and love the love of God as you did. Dear Mother, when we face the storms of life, teach us and help us to know that you are with us. Holy Spirit our Comforter, help us to deal with our fears, and give us your peace. Help us to live as new creations in Christ (2Corinthians 5:17) showing your love to others. Amen.
