Lord Jesus -
Your angels tell us to get up and go toward the wilderness road. May we get up and go.
Along this wilderness road, we meet fellow travelers reading and seeking to understand Scripture. May we go over…join our fellow travelers…and - together - engage our questions.
Do you understand what you are reading?
How can I, unless someone guides me?
About whom does the prophet say this?
What is to prevent me from being baptized?
As our questions cascade like the rush of a waterfall, may we hear Your good news pulling us down into the waters and raising us up.
Immersed in Your Word and our baptismal waters, may we continue along our wilderness road - rejoicing and proclaiming the gospel to all.
Amen.
