Unison Prayer for Today (please stand) Precious Father, help us to realize our life is precious and to deal with every moment with wisdom. Satisfy our hearts this morning with the fullness and completeness of Your loving kindness. Help us to see Your work all around us today. We pray that you work in and through us so that today we will build that which You initiate, and we pray it will last beyond us. We pray this in your name, Alleluia Amen!

Responsive Reading Pastor Harry
Leader: Beloved, the voice of Wisdom calls us from the street corner, the grocery store isle, the noisy dinner table, and the quiet places of our hearts, Will you listen?
People: Yes, with God's help, we will listen!
Leader: Wisdom calls to us with hard truths, showing us where we've strayed in our hearts and as a community and urging us back onto God's path. Will you follow?
People: Yes, with God's help, we will follow!
Leader: Wisdom's call persists through the twist and turns, the rough patches, the barely discernible paths forward, and the moments we feel completely lost. Will you hold on to Wisdom wherever she takes you?
People: Yes, with God's help, we will hold on to Wisdom!
Leader: Then, Beloved, let us worship God together as we cling to wisdom on our journey along the path of salvation paved with God's love.
People: Yes, let us worship God together! To your glory Amen!
