Father, look upon us in Your goodness and kindness, we pray as a church. Help us to love each other.

Father, help us to rest our heads on the soft pillow of Your providence.

We Christians are secure, realizing that even our failures and our sins are under His control.

The same Holy Spirit who implants faith within a life implants the boldness to verbalize that faith.

Christ, because of who He is, can look death in the face.

If we are to say no to covetousness, we must learn to say yes to contentment. This involves learning to be content with what we have (Hebrews 13:5). Much of our discontentment may be traced to expectations that are essentially selfish and more often than not completely unrealistic.

Our gracious God, we need the ministry of the Spirit of God within our lives so that Your Word may take root within us.
