Reflection Questions

4. How do you discover God's will for your life?
A Prayer
Lord Jesus, you are the great shepherd of the sheep. Only through your love and mercy can we have a clear conscience. Only you can make us complete in everything good. Without your help. we are unable to live with honor. Apart from you we cannot please God.
Forgive us for wandering from the fold, trying to make it on our own. Restore us to yourself, whose resurrection power can transform our lives. By grace may we be pleasing in God's sight. Amen.
