We know that when it doesn’t feel like God is showing up in the way we need him to, that we can confront God and talk to him about the gap between his power and our reality. It’s a call to prayer. ... So, as you go about your week and find yourself facing various challenges, may you feel affirmed in your faith and affirmed in your doubt knowing that both pilgrimages have a way of encountering God.

Rev. Dr. Jenni Bales
