Good Morning, Ministry Partner!

December 12, 2019

Be Encouraged by God's Word
Trust in the Lord, and do good;
    so you will live in the land, and enjoy security.
Take delight in the Lord,
    and he will give you the desires of your heart.
Commit your way to the Lord;
    trust in him, and he will act.
He will make your vindication shine like the light,
    and the justice of your cause like the noonday.

- Psalm 37:3-6, NRSV

Wisdom from Fellow Pilgrims
Grace will not suffer a vacuum, any more than nature.

- Johann Albrecht Bengel

Pray Together with Us

O Lord our God, teach us, we implore You, to ask You for the right blessings. Steer our life to You, the tranquil Haven of all storm-tossed souls. Show us the course where we should go. Renew a willing spirit within us. Let Your Spirit curb our wayward senses, and guide and enable us to that which is our true good, to keep Your laws, and in all our works to rejoice in Your glorious and gladdening Presence. For Yours is the glory and praise from all Your saints forever and ever. Amen.

- Basil
