Prayer for Week 6
God of silence and God of all sound, help me
to listen. Help me to do the deep listening to the sounds of my soul, waiting
to hear your soft voice calling me deeper into you. Give me attentive ears that
begin to separate the noise from the sounds that are you; you who have been
speaking to me and through me my whole life, for so long that you can seem like
background noise. Today help me hear you anew. Amen.
Acts 16:6-12
They went through the region of Phrygia and
Galatia, having been forbidden by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia.
When they had come opposite Mysia, they attempted to go into Bithynia, but the
Spirit of Jesus did not allow them; so, passing by Mysia, they went down to
Troas. During the night Paul had a vision: there stood a man of Macedonia pleading
with him and saying, “Come over to Macedonia and help us.” When he had seen the
vision, we immediately tried to cross over to Macedonia, being convinced that
God had called us to proclaim the good news to them.
We set sail from Troas and took a straight course to Samothrace, the following day to Neapolis, and from there to Philippi, which is a leading city of the district of Macedonia and a Roman colony. We remained in this city for some days.
To
whom or where might God be inviting our congregation to “come over” and “help?”
What
Good News do we have to proclaim/share with them or there?
