This is Your day, and so it is ours. A day to gather and sing Your praise. A day along with our psalmists to remember and give thanks. A day to examine, confess and repent. A day to stand in the breach as we intercede for others and our world. You have been so good to us throughout the generations! You are our Hope and our Salvation! Today we humbly approach Your throne and we worship You with gla...  Read More

We are a part of those 'future generations' (Psalm 102:18) who revel in the worship, prayer, and poetry of these beautiful psalms.

Today, make our very...  Read More

As Your Word instructs us (1 Timothy 2:1-4) and the psalmists from time to time give us examples, we pray for those in authority over us. Lord God, give them wisdom to govern, humility to seek Your counsel and the counsel of the wise, courage to do what is right, and a commitment to what is just and true. If they are in error, show them their way. If they will not heed Your direction, then rule an...  Read More
