Most of us think of patience as something we lack. But what if we were never supposed to manufacture it on our own? In this episode, we reflect on the unhurried, steady way God is present with us—and how that truth changes everything, including how we treat others. We'll turn to Scripture and then pray together for the patience we can't produce by ourselves and for the peace that comes from knowing the Lord is not in a hurry. Scriptures referenced: John 15:5; Colossians 3:12 For more resources to help you in your walk with God, visit intouch.org or subscribe to the free In Touch devotional at intouch.org/subscribe.
God sees all the doubts, the regrets, the longings we're not sure we're allowed to have. His response? Love. In this episode, we discover what it means to be fully known by God—and why that kind of intimacy is the beginning of rest. We'll read Scripture together and then pray for rest in His all-knowing presence.
The world is loud right now. But what if the anger we keep encountering—in others and in ourselves—isn't actually the whole story? In this episode, we look at Matthew 9, where Jesus is met by a demanding, exhausting crowd—yet He sees something else entirely. Then we'll pray together for the ability to hear the hurt underneath the noise.
We live in a noisy world—and have an even noisier mind. So how do we hear God in the middle of it all? In this episode, we take a look at the voices and influences competing for our attention and how to pause and turn toward the Lord. We'll look to Scripture together and then pray for clarity and for confidence in the God who gives wisdom generously.
When suffering won't let up, hope can feel like setting ourselves up for more disappointment. But what if hope isn’t as risky as it feels? In this episode, we turn to Psalm 146 and discover an unfailing hope—in a God who is already at work in every place where there is suffering. Then we’ll pray together for hope that is sturdier than wishful thinking.
