HAPPENINGS WITH KID’S JUNCTION
Prayer for the Week (October 13, 2024-October 19, 2024)
Let us pray to God for the wisdom to follow God’s Son without hesitation: Lord our God, your living Word upsets us because you give first place in your kingdom to the last and least. You call the poor rich and blessed and ask the rich to become poor. Give us the wisdom of living for the things that matter and follow your Son on the road to you and our neighbor. Grant this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Sunday Reflection (October 13, 2024)
Sunday Reflection upon Job 23
In dire straits, Job desires a confrontation with God, yet he has trouble finding God. We have all been in a situation where God seems distant and hidden. Although God seems hidden from Job, Job is not hidden from God. Thus, Job has confidence in God even when God seems hidden. No matter how he suffers, Job is intent on keeping the Lord’s commands, yet his suffering is so heavy that his confidence seemingly gives way to fate, fear, and despair.
Amid suffering and difficulties, we may wonder: God, do I deserve all this? Amid suffering and problems, look to God! Be upfront with God! And don’t give up on keeping the commands of the Lord! Be like Job, who maintained his integrity and faith in God despite suffering. Be like Jesus, who, while hanging on the cross, cried out these words from Psalm 22: “My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?” May the commands of the Lord Jesus Christ always be in our minds, hearts, thoughts, and actions!
