Ep. 225: My Cry Reached the Lord’s Ears

In Podcast Episode 225, “My Cry Reached the Lord’s Ears,” Kim discusses the comfort which comes in knowing the Lord not only hears the cries of His children but also responds. He hears our cries for our own needs, as well as those we utter for others.

 

Our focal passage for this episode is 2 Samuel 22:5-7 with the focal verse of 7:

 

7 But in my distress I cried out to the Lord;

    yes, I cried to my God for help.

He heard me from his sanctuary;

    my cry reached his ears.

WEEKLY ASSIGNMENT FEATURE:

 

Describe a time when the Lord responded to your cry.
