AM - Psalm 22
PM - Psalm 141 and 143
Gospel - John 11:1-27
For reflection: What difficulties have you faced that have stretched your faith?

Does Psalm 142 strike a chord for you? It does for me. "I cry aloud to the Lord", says the Psalmist, "I lift up my voice to the Lord for Mercy."
I've been there, and I know you have as well. Over the past two years, our family as suffered through the loss of income and painful, unrelenting illness. We have cried to the Lord on countless occassions and have wondered at times why the Lord didn't give us what we asked for. Of course, we don't know if he will ever solve these problems in the way we would like. But we do know that he has been constantly faithful to us. He has blessed us in so many other ways! He has been our "refuge". Constantly giving us the strength we need to soldier on.
"When my spirit grows faint within me, it is you who know my way". Thank you, God!!
