For Reflection and Preparation  

   Now may our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God our Father, who loved us and gave us eternal comfort and good hope through grace, comfort your hearts and establish them in every good work and word.

                                                                                 II Thessalonians 2:16-17

   

    The world does not need more of you; it needs more of God.  Your friends do not need more of you; they need more of God.  And you don’t need more of you; you need more of God.  For we do not progress in the Christian life by becoming more competent, more knowledgeable, more virtuous, or more energetic...we need more of God.                                                                                                                Eugene Peterson, Crux

    In the New Testament, grace means God's love in action toward people who merited the opposite of love. Grace means God moving heaven and earth to save sinners who could not lift a finger to save themselves. Grace means God sending his only Son to the cross to descend into hell so that we guilty ones might be reconciled to God and received into heaven.                J.I. Packer, Knowing God

Assurance of God’s Grace                        Colossians 1:11-14

    May you be strengthened with all power, according to his glorious might, for all endurance and patience with joy, giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in light.  He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.

Confessing Our Faith                      The Apostles’ Creed

I Believe in God the Father, Almighty,

Maker of heaven and earth;

And in Jesus Christ His only Son, our Lord,

Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,

Born of the virgin Mary,

Suffered under Pontius Pilate,

Was crucified, dead, and buried:

He descended into hell;

The third day He arose again from the dead;

He ascended into heaven,

And sitteth on the right hand of GHood the Father Almighty,

From thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead.

I Believe in the Holy Spirit;

The holy catholic church;

The communion of saints,

The forgiveness of sins,

The resurrection of the body;

And the life everlasting.  Amen.
