Hebrews 12 : 16-24

   
16 Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person,
as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright.
17 For ye know how that afterward,
when he would have inherited the blessing,
he was rejected:
for he found no place of repentance,
though he sought it carefully with tears.
18 For ye are not come unto the mount that might be touched,
and that burned with fire,
nor unto blackness,
and darkness, and tempest,
19 And the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words;
which voice they that heard intreated that the word should not be spoken to them any more:
20 (For they could not endure that which was commanded,
And if so much as a beast touch the mountain,
it shall be stoned,
or thrust through with a dart:
21 And so terrible was the sight,
that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:
22 But ye are come unto mount Sion,
and unto the city of the living God,
the heavenly Jerusalem,
and to an innumerable company of angels,
23 To the general assembly and church of the firstborn,
which are written in heaven,
and to God the Judge of all,
and to the spirits of just men made perfect,
24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant,
and to the blood of sprinkling,
that speaketh better things than that of Abel.



Today's Prayer...


Dear Father in heaven,

As your children we stand before you and lift our eyes to you.
We are poor,
needy people,
often wretched and tormented.
Let your eyes rest upon us.
Grant us the help we need.
Bless us when we gather in the name of Jesus Christ,
that we may be a people who learn to serve you on
all the paths we follow,
even if it proves bitterly hard.
Give us true faith for every moment.
May we have joy and confidence that you are with your children,
that you remain with them forever,
until the great time of redemption when we will rejoice with
all past generations and with all who are living today.



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

Amen
