Today we dive into Nehemiah! We look at what it means to mourn, how we cope in prayer, and what it takes to get to work.
Questions for reflection this week:
- What can we learn from the length of time Nehemiah prayed and wept, versus the amount of time they worked on the wall?
- How can we remain steadfast and hopeful in the face of opposition?
Readings for next week: Nehemiah 8-13
