“Wish to see a sign from you.”

Loving Father, we feel sorry that sometimes we are treating Jesus your Son, our Lord and Savior, like the scribes and Pharisees, asking too much but without faith. Sometimes we treat the Lord Jesus like a magician or like someone performing on stage just to amuse or entertain us. We all know that you don't need an audience nor viewers but believers. As your children, may we follow more you closely each day.

We ask this through our Lord Jesus, your Son, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, One God, forever and ever.

Amen.
