Psalm 37:1-6

July 16, 2009

Do not fret because of evildoers, nor be envious of the workers of iniquity. (Psalm 37:1)
      Lord Jesus, set our hearts and minds free from fretting about the evil that is being done at General Convention. You are Lord and you are in charge of our lives and this diocese.

For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb. (Psalm 37:2)
      Lord, even now rescue from sin and death those who espouse evil at General Convention.

Trust in the Lord, and do good; dwell in the land, and feed on his faithfulness. (Psalm 37:3)
      Holy Spirit, please help us trust in what Jesus is doing in the Episcopal Church.

Delight yourself also in the Lord, and he shall give you the desires of your heart. (Psalm 37:4)
      Father, thank you for the joy your love for us gives us. Thank you for turning our hearts into your ways. Help us daily delight ourselves in you.

Commit your way to the Lord, trust also in him, and he shall bring it to pass. (Psalm 37:5)
      Jesus, we commit our way to you and trust in you. We do not yet see the way forward, but you are the way, the truth, and the life and you will provide for this diocese and all your faithful people.

He shall bring forth your righteousness as the light, and your justice as the noonday. (Psalm 37:6)
      Holy Trinity, one God, please help us rest in you and wait patiently for you; set us free from fretting because of those who prosper in their wickedness. Let us cease from anger and forsake wrath — it only causes harm when we fret. Thank you. (From Psalm 37:7-8 )

      A word received: Pray for my people in the Episcopal Church — they have been deluded with lies. Pray for the truth and the power of the gospel to penetrate the Episcopal Church.
