Wandering Heart Mar 26 Holy Week Tuesday

Permission from @sanctifiedart

March 26, 2024 • John 12:12–16

Give

Take a few minutes each day to spend time with God in reflection and prayer for Lent as part of our Wandering Heart: Figuring out Faith with Peter series.

Theme: Songs of Loudest Praise

Centering practice - Centering practice | Center yourself in breath. Place one hand on your belly and one on your heart. Inhale for 4 counts, hold for 4, and exhale for 4.

Question - Does it feel easy or hard to talk about your faith in public? Why?

Prayer - Jesus of Nazareth, we live in a world that has declared “no religion at the dinner table.” In that same spirit of compartmentalization, I am guilty of keeping my faith tucked away, a private devotion for quiet moments. That is not the way I want to live. This love was never meant to be quiet. This love was meant to be told, celebrated, shared, and spread. So when the cock crows in my own life, let me speak with conviction. Amen.

We hope you had a Blessed Easter and are enjoying Easter Week. Here is today's devotional. Take a few minutes each day to spend time with God in reflection and prayer for Lent as part of our Wandering Heart: Figuring out Faith with Peter series. Theme: Here's My Heart Centering practice - Center yourself in gratitude. Create a list of 10 things that you are grateful for Question - What have you learned from Peter’s journey of faith? Prayer - Jesus of Nazareth, thank you for calling ordinary people to be your disciples. Peter was a mix of belief and unbelief, always trying to follow in your footsteps without tripping on his own two feet. So often I feel the same. Peter’s story is my story. Peter’s journey is my journey. So thank you again for showing us that kingdom work can happen with ordinary human hands. I believe. Help my unbelief. In your name I pray, amen. #sanctifiedart #wanderingheart #stmarkslutheran #stmarkshh #easter2024
