When the Psalmist asks God to make the king not a great conqueror, not a wealthy empire-builder, not beautiful and popular, but a champion of the needs of the poor, and a defender of justice for them. It’s the job of the one in power to be on the same side as God – the side of the poor against those who oppress them.
Is it only God's job to show us the comforting things, the things that make us feel good about ourselves and our beliefs? Or is it also God's job to push us to see things we don't want to, things that are painful and difficult, to push us out of our apathy towards being more loving and conscientious people? Reflection on Psalm 71:19-21 by Pastor Lars Hammar
A guided prayer meditation to help you bring your ultimate questions to God in prayer. You don't have to either feel the need to hide your questions from God, or walk from faith because of them. Bring them to God in prayer and own them to God in the presence of the Holy Spirit. Our big question is: When have I experienced God?

We approach faith at Lord of Grace with an open mind, acknowledging that we are following God into an unknown future, that we don't have all the answers, and that that is OK because God is with us in this journey. Take some time to relax, clear your mind, and just sit in a place where you own up to now knowing the answers, and let God fill your heart in that space.
