God Sightings Pastor Harry
(Unison Opening Prayer please stand) Shepherd of my Soul, hover over us today. We pray, this Lenten Season, to give up the things that no longer serve us. Let us fix our hearts on your Presence as you restore our soul. Alleluia Amen!
Opening Praise: Page 454 Steve
Responsive Reading: Psalm 37:1-9
Pastor: Do not worry about wicked people, or envy those who do evil and prosper. I am a God of justice, and will right all wrongs.
People: Let's live God's way. We will trust in the Lord and do good.
Pastor: Let's live God's way! Commit everything you do to the Lord. Trust him, and the justice of your mission will shine like the noon day sun!
People: Let's live God's way! Stop being angry. Do not lose your temper -- it only leads to harm. Trust in the Lord and be saved
All: Trust in the Lord and do good. Amen
Praise Song: Steve
