Psalm 31:12 - 19


12 I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind:
I am like a broken vessel.
13 For I have heard the slander of many:
fear was on every side:
while they took counsel together against me,
they devised to take away my life.
14 But I trusted in thee,
O Lord:
I said, Thou art my God.
15 My times are in thy hand:
deliver me from the hand of mine enemies,
and from them that persecute me.
16 Make thy face to shine upon thy servant:
save me for thy mercies' sake.
17 Let me not be ashamed,
O Lord; for I have called upon thee:
let the wicked be ashamed,
and let them be silent in the grave.
18 Let the lying lips be put to silence;
which speak grievous things proudly and contemptuously
against the righteous.
19 Oh how great is thy goodness,
which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee;
which thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee
before the sons of men!



Today's Prayer...


Lord our God,

We thank you for filling our hearts with such great trust.
We thank you for all we are given in our lives,
above all that we can come to know Jesus Christ.
We thank you that over and over we can draw strength
and life from his life. Praise to your name, for our life has a goal
and we may find strength and certainty during our time on earth.
You will reveal what we hope for, and even now you allow us to
keep something of this goal before our eyes. We praise you that
your name may become great in our midst and that again and
again new life can well up from us, who are poor and weak.
May your name be praised for setting this goal
before us to strengthen us.


In the Name of the Most Holy we
pray in Jesus' Name

Amen
