Job 28:1-30:31, 2 Corinthians 2:12-17, Psalms 42:1-11, Proverbs 22:7
Today is the 28th day of August welcome to the Daily Audio Bible I am Brian it is wonderful to be here with you today as we keep the journey going, keep sailing forward, keep moving step-by-step through the Scriptures. So, let’s get to it. We’re reading from the Voice Translation this week and continuing our journey through the book of Job and that today we’ll read chapters 28, 29, and 30.
Prayer:
Thank You, Father for Your word. Thank You, Father for community to experience Your word in. Thank You for the uniqueness of who we are all over the world moving through the Scriptures together and allowing it to wash into our lives, to inform our lives, to correct us, to rebuke us, to comfort us, to illuminate the narrow path that leads to life. And we confess that we’re always looking for the shortcut to the on-ramp of that road, but that is a narrow path that few ever find according to the Scriptures and Your word leads us and guides us and it is a twisty wine the up and down life that we live and each day with each challenge we are reminded of our utter dependence upon You and Your willingness to guide us into all truth. And, so, we invite You Holy Spirit to do just that. We open ourselves up to You. May the mind of Christ be our mind, may the narrow path be our path, may Your word be a lamp unto our feet and a light to that path and may we experience Your presence in every way. We ask this in the name of Jesus. Amen.

I haven’t talked about it in a while but the new resources…the new resource that we have this year is a guided prayer journey called Heart, a contemplative journey. And we released that way, way back last month at the beginning…way back. It seems like forever ago doesn’t it, that we did the long walk? But that was on July 7th and released that on July 7th and…yeah… it has struck a nerve. The feedback has been fantastic. It is simply a way of taking in an hour and just being guided in in prayer into some of the things that you’ve probably been feeling, that we’ve all been feeling over the last year or probably over the last many years, some of the deeper places of the heart. And then there are musical compositions around those prayers that are intended to lead that a prayer process, that thinking, that opening of our hearts to those emotions deeper as we contemplate as we become more and more aware of God’s presence in all of those things. So, Heart is available wherever you can get music, like i…the iTunes Store or Google Play. It’s not on…on Apple music stream-able. The prayers, like the only way to do stream-able content is then disembody the prayers from the rest of the project and that’s just very strange to say the least. So, you can buy it at the iTunes store or at Google Play and get the entire project and take the journey, if you haven’t yet. It's…it’s worth doing. It’s worth taking some time. Actually, it’s worth doing over and over and over actually. One time through is wonderful and then you go back for a deeper pass and a deeper pass and open your heart deeper and deeper and wider to what the Holy Spirit may want to say to you about some the things you’ve been feeling. So, check out the Heart project. You can just download it at the iTunes Store or Google Play or wherever.
