Psalm 24:7-10 {Prayer} The theme for this LWML Sunday comes from Psalm 24:7-10 where King David proclaims, 7 Lift up your heads, O you gates; be lifted up, you ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in. 8 Who is this King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord…
Psalm 23 {Prayer} On what has been dubbed Good Shepherd Sunday, it would be a disservice to not talk about sheep and the Shepherd. Usually when we talk about sheep we talk about the whole flock of sheep, of all of God’s little lambs. But this morning, I want to change that up…
{Prayer} Of all the different Christmas songs and Christmas hymns out there, one of my favorites if not my all-time favorite, is the hymn we just sung, “What Child Is This.” Even though it can be a hard hymn to sing, even though it is all about Jesus, the babe, the son of Mary…
Psalm 46 {Prayer} I’m a fan of storms, a huge fan of storms. I was really enjoying the ones we had this past week as they produced a great light show with some good rumbling thunder. It’s fun and relaxing at the same time to just sit in our sunroom when theirs a storm and…

All of…
Psalm 119:11 ESV 11 I have stored up your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you. Dear Friends in Christ, Times are changing. How many times haven’t we heard that familiar saying and perhaps used it ourselves? And while some change can be good, not all change fits that description. For example,…

Psalm 32 Of David. A maskil. 1 Blessed is the one whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered. 2 Blessed is the one whose sin the Lord does not count against them and in whose spirit is no deceit. 3 When I kept silent, my bones wasted away through my groaning all day long. 4 For day and night your hand was…
Psalm 119:97-103 97 Oh, how I love your law! I meditate on it all day long. 98 Your commands are always with me and make me wiser than my enemies. 99 I have more insight than all my teachers, for I meditate on your statutes. 100 I have more understanding than the elders, for I obey your precepts. 101 I have kept…
