Bless our God, O peoples, let the sound of his praise be heard,
Who has kept us among the living, and has not let our feet slip.
For you, O God, have tested us; you have tried us as silver is tried.
You brought us into the net; you laid burdens on our backs;
You let people ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water;
Yet you have brought us out to a spacious place.
Come and hear, all you who fear God,
And I will tell you what he has done for me.
I cried aloud to him,
And he was extolled with my tongue.
If I had cherished iniquity in my heart,
The Lord would not have listened.
But truly God has listened;
He has given heed to the words of my prayer.
Blessed by God, because he has not rejected my prayer
Or removed his steadfast love from me. – from Psalm 66
We look forward to sharing in Worship with you – whether in person or via live-stream. We will be reading from 1 Peter 3:13-22. Rev. Benjamin Wines brings the sermon, “With Gentleness and Reverence”.
Questions for Further Reflection:
Peter encourages us to know how we want to express our faith to others.
What are the first things you’d want to tell someone about God?
Why do you think those things are so important to you?
