When we pray and Jesus does not answer “yes” to our prayers, how do we respond? Today we will look at two sisters who went through just such an experience. Through their experience, we will see how Jesus works in unseen ways, even when He does not answer with a “yes”.
Today, we get to see the power of Jesus as the Good Shepherd, not only in seeking us out and rescuing us, but also in protecting us and keeping us safe as His sheep.
Today we will see how God used the prayers and obedience of two people to miraculously bring them together. This encounter will change both of their lives. Through them, we can learn a lot about praying and following Jesus in our own lives.

There are a lot of similarities between fathers and sons. In our passage, Jesus uses those similarities to describe father-son connections. First to describe His connection with Himself and God the Father, but also to point out the connection that certain people claimed to have with God wasn’t really there.
Have you ever heard the phrase, “You shall know the truth, and the truth will make you free”? This was something Jesus said. So what was Jesus talking about when He said that? What is the truth He’s talking about, and what does that truth set us free from?
