A Satnav is an incredible thing. It allows us to plot our course and also reassure ourselves that although we may be stuck just now, the end of this obstacle is only just ahead.
As we look forward to the end of this school year and consider the route through next year, many might seek strength and reassurance from their faith. It offers them the resilience they need to sit with things that are not comfortable but hopefully soon passed and it assures them that someone above it all has a direction set out for us.
Lord God, maker of the heavens and Earth,
When we feel lost, reassure us that you see us and know us.
When we seek direction, give us strength to search for faith and wisdom in the scriptures and also in the brothers and sisters of faith around us.
Offer us a glimpse of your purpose for our lives and bless us in that journey.
Amen.
