At twilight today, Friday, May 19th, a new day begins, the 42nd day of "counting the Omer". Today marks six weeks of counting.
In the days after Yeshua ascending to heaven, the disciples were in constant prayer (Acts 1:14). From their perspective plans for their future had been radically altered. Two things were sure: they were to stay in Jerusalem and wait for a promise from the Father. When the future seems uncertain, hope comes from knowing the one who holds your future. He's got yours in His hands.
PRAYER: Thank You, Lord that we can trust you when nothing seems as we thought it would. On the forty-second day of counting the Omer, we bless You. Thank you for continuing to walk by our side through all seven weeks of the countdown to Pentecost! Amen.
