Contemplative Bible Reading

Psalm 39:12 (New Living Translation)

Hear my prayer, O Lord!
Listen to my cries for help!
Don’t ignore my tears.
For I am your guest—
a traveler passing through,
as my ancestors were before me.

This is the life of a Christian. I am a traveler passing through this place. It is not my home. I seek to love and bless persons I meet while traveling, for I know they too are travelers.
