Good Morning, Ministry Partner!

June 24, 2019

Be Encouraged by God's Word
Be careful, or your hearts will be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness and the anxieties of life, and that day will close on you suddenly like a trap. For it will come on all those who live on the face of the whole earth. Be always on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man.

— Luke 21:34-36, NIV

Wisdom from Fellow Pilgrims

Prayer does not fit us for the greater works; prayer is the greater work.

— Oswald Chambers

Pray Together with Us

Lord, purge our eyes to see
Within the seed a tree,
Within the glowing egg a bird,
Within the shroud a butterfly:
Till taught by such, we see
Beyond all creatures thee,
And hearken for thy tender word
And hear its "Fear not: it is I."

— Christine Rossetti
