If you find yourself really struggling to identify your story - or feel like you are in need of a new story for this moment in your life and your faith journey - the second page offers you a framework for praying specifically for Jesus to step into your story today.

Not sure if this reflection is for you?  It begins by asking you to list three reasons why you love Jesus.  If that's something that's challenging for you to articulate, then you may want to take a look at the Discover Your Story reflection first.
