E13 Anointed (Psalm 23:1, 5)

In this special episode, a "Reflective Short", you will spend a few minutes practicing one of my personal favorite prayers, A Prayer For Direction. Based out of Psalm 25:4, this prayer asks for God's help during the turbulent, confusing, and emotionally-challenging world we find ourselves in. Take a moment to listen for Jesus' tender voice, easy to drown out with all the other voices surrounding us. What does God have to say to you?
