Beneficent God,
Sometimes, O Lord, the darkness seems to be all around us. Life has beaten us down too many times, and we have a hard time getting back up. We ask, "Where are you, God?" Please forgive us when we are only aware of your presence in the good times. May we hear the words of Paul when he said, "For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor rulers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,39nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord." (Romans 8:38-39) We give you thanks in Jesus’ name. AMEN

John McLemore
