IN THE FIRST SET of beads, we prayed, "Our fathers, when they were in Egypt, did not consider your wondrous works." Sometimes it can seem that our lives are being lived in Egypt, but our home is in God's wondrous works. Just as those works happened here, on earth, God is with us now. Return to your own remembrance of God's saving mercy, recall how he has forgiven you over and over, and give thanks.
In the second set of beads, we prayed, "But they soon forgot his works; they did not wait for his counsel." We must wait for his counsel; press into his presence today. Wait, listen. If you do not hear in this moment, go in faith that the Lord will answer. Listen as you go along the way of a "long obedience in the same direction" (from Eugene Peterson's book of the same title).
