Good Morning, Ministry Partner!

August 29, 2019

Be Encouraged by God's Word
It pleased the Lord that Solomon had asked this. God said to him, “Because you have asked this, and have not asked for yourself long life or riches, or for the life of your enemies, but have asked for yourself understanding to discern what is right, I now do according to your word. Indeed I give you a wise and discerning mind; no one like you has been before you and no one like you shall arise after you. I give you also what you have not asked, both riches and honor all your life; no other king shall compare with you. If you will walk in my ways, keeping my statutes and my commandments, as your father David walked, then I will lengthen your life.”
 

  1 Kings 3:10-14, NRSV
 

 
Wisdom from Fellow Pilgrims 
God is not a deceiver, that He should offer to support us, and then, when we lean upon Him, should slip away from us.

  - Saint Augustine


 


 

Pray Together with Us

O Lord, from now on let me love You as intensely as I have loved sin,
and work for You as hard as I once worked for the evil one.
I promise that I will work to do Your will,
my Lord and God, Jesus Christ, all the days of my life and forever more.

   - John Chrysostom
