by Faith Parry on June 16th, 2023
We close out this week's devotions from the Book of Common Prayer back in the book of Psalms. This Psalm is powerful when life is going every wrong way possible or when you feel like you've failed and there's no way to recover. If you need to cry to God, you can pray through this Psalm and feel much better. For today's sake, we will reflect on just a few verses. But I keep praying to you, Lord,hop... Read More
