Gracious and Eternal God,
As your redeeming work brings together what is scattered and mends what is broken, unite us with the scattered and broken people of our community, nation, and world.

When we met in person, we shared joys and concerns together. As you think about the last week, what joys and concerns do you have? What about for the upcoming week? If you would like, you can share these in the comments. When you are ready, use the prayer below from Woman's Day to get started.
Dear God, I know that the first step in all spiritual healing is to believe. I believe! I open my mind and heart believing in your infinite power and possibility. I believe that healing is a dynamic and reachable experience, a reality that can be experienced right now. I maintain a patient and loving attitude, for I believe that your healing activity is now at work in my mind and body. I look forward, with joyful expectation, to the perfect wholeness that you are now bringing into manifestation through me. I believe in your constant expression of perfect good in and through me. I rest in the certainty of your healing power. I know that with you all things are possible. In Jesus Christ's name, Amen.
Today’s guest speaker is Rev. CJ Haury. Please see the letter mentioned in the announcements below. 
Good morning!
We're so glad that you've joined us today!
When we meet together in person, we share our joys and concerns with each other before we focus on our Sunday school lesson. Think about your needs and concerns right now, and if you like, you can share them in the comments.
Today’s lesson is about how Jesus calmed a storm on the Sea of Galilee when his disciples were afraid. In the United States, it seems, we are just emerging from a year like no other, when we had to isolate for fear of sickness or even death. Now many people are going through personal crises involving loss of income and unknown futures. At our church, we are beginning the search for a new pastor. All these uncertainties can inspire fear. But today’s lesson calls us to trust God in the midst of fearful situations. Identify what your fears are today. Then ask God to give you peace in the midst of the storm and to know that God is able and willing to help us. The prayer below may serve to guide us in our opening prayer. It is from the My Redeemer Lives website.
O God who is greater than the most powerful forces in this world, enable us to be still and know that You are God. O Lord who answers out of the whirlwind of everyday life, breathe in us Your Holy Spirit to strengthen, comfort, and guide us in the midst of the storm. O still, small voice, speak to us this hour, that we might become makers of Your peace in our homes, in our communities, in our world. We pray all this in the name of the One who calmed the raging sea. Amen.

When we met in person, we shared our joys and concerns together. Take some time to think about your past week, and your upcoming week. What joys or concerns do you have? If you would like, you can share those as a comment to this post. When you are ready, use the Prayer for Inner Peace below to get started.
Lord, please put Your peace in my heart.
I'm worried and anxious. My mind races and obsesses. I can't help thinking about my problems. And the more I think about them, the more depressed I become. I feel like I'm sinking down in quicksand and can't get out. Calm me, Lord. Slow me down, put Your peace in my heart. No matter what problem I have, Lord, You are bigger, You are more powerful than it is. So I bring my problem to You. I know what I want. I know my will. I do not know Yours. I do not know how You will use this problem for my salvation. I do not know what good You will workout from this evil. But I trust You. I trust Your goodness and Your wisdom. So I place myself in Your hands. Please fill my heart with peace. Amen. |
