Scripture Reading • Hebrews 12:1–13
~ Suggested Prayer ~
O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens. Out of the mouth of babies and infants, you have established strength because of your foes, to still the enemy and the avenger. When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place, what is man that you are mindful of him, and the son of man that you care for him? Yet you have made him a little lower than the heavenly beings and crowned him with glory and honor. You have given him dominion over the works of your hands; you have put all things under his feet, all sheep and oxen, and also the beasts of the field, 8the birds of the heavens, and the fish of the sea, whatever passes along the paths of the seas. O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
Amen.

Reflections of Grace
It is always encouraging to hear how the Lord has worked in fellow believers’ lives. It is amazing to see how so many different people from different backgrounds have come to know Jesus. We invite you to share your story. You may be surprised to see how the Lord will encourage others with your story. Contact Pastor Jonathan if you would be willing to share.
