“And when in their distress they shall return to the Lord the God of Israel, and shall seek him, they shall find him.”
Reflection for Today
Today's Catholic verse of the day is 2 Chronicles 15:4: “And when in their distress they shall return to the Lord the God of Israel, and shall seek him, they shall find him.”
Scripture rarely flatters us. It loves us enough to tell the truth, and then it stays with us while we learn to live that truth. 2 Chronicles is part of the long story of salvation. Catholics receive it as inspired Scripture, a word that prepares the heart for Christ and still nourishes the Church.
If nothing else remains from this page, let one phrase of 2 Chronicles 15:4 remain. Before the day runs away, sit with this verse for two quiet minutes. Say it slowly. Notice which word stays warm in the heart, and carry that word into one conversation.
Prayer
Lord God, thank You for speaking through 2 Chronicles 15:4. You said, “And when in their distress they shall return to the Lord the God of Israel, and…” I do not want to rush past these words. Quiet my mind, warm my heart, and help me live what I have heard with faith, hope, and charity. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
