Coffee Moments: "do not forget about us"

Path 1

do not forget about us

Path Light: Read Jeremiah 14: 1-9

Key Passage: ….yet thou, O Lord, art in the midst of us, and we are called by thy name; leave us not. – Jeremiah 14:9b KJV

            At this time Judah was mourning. There was a drought in the land. They actually were crying in anguish because the cities’ wells, grounds and fields were barren and dry. The people were at the point of despair. The Lord recounts these words to Jeremiah. We can understand the desperation of the people. Appearing next are pleas in the form of prayers admitting the sins of the people.  

Prayer on the Path:

Our sins show our guilt, Lord. Please help us. We have backslidden immensely; our sins have offended You. You are our only hope in this time of ultimate despair. You seem as a stranger to me right now, like a person that passes by me unknown. It is as if You are a soldier that has been approached unaware, unarmed and stunned. However, I know that You are right here with us. We know this, Lord. Others may think the opposite. We know that we are Yours. Please do not forget about us (Jeremiah 14:7-9)!

Walk Farther:

Have you ever been to the point of desperation like the people of Judah?

Are you now?

Have you thought about praying like this and begging God to hear you?

Do you desire to feel His presence so strongly in your life?

In His Love,
