August 27-September 2, 2023
My pastor often says, " You're either going into, coming out of, or in a trial." As the saying goes, "The struggle is real!" I don't know where you are on the pendulum but I am right smack dab in the middle of struggle with trials all around me. There is no where to turn except to the master. Journey with me this month as we explore navigating through times of struggle. The prompts are written from the "in the struggle" point of view. Feel free to reword the prompts to match your season. This month's prompts require you to observe, listen and obey. Keep a journal, notebook, pen/pencil handy to record what you hear or learn.
This Week’s Bible Reading: Matthew 14

"Immediately He made the disciples get into the boat and go to the other side, while He dismissed the crowds" (Matthew 14:22).
