---- in love

Be bold in Prayer

Be bold in Love

You will begin to know

You will begin to hear

Psalm 138

Worship Leader: I will praise you, O LORD, with all my heart; I will praise you before all the little gods of this world to let them know that You O Lord are the center of my life.

Congregation: I will worship you and praise your name O Lord for all your unfailing love and faithfulness.

Luke 10:38-42

---- (listen)

busy enough

---- (listen)

Psalm 15

Worship Leader: LORD, who may dwell in your sanctuary?

Congregation: The One whose walk is blameless and who does what is righteous; The one who speaks the truth from his heart and utters no slander. It is the one who does his neighbor no wrong and casts no slur on others. 
 
Worship Leader: LORD, Who may live on your holy hill?

Congregation: It is the one who despises what is vile in humanity and honors those who fear the LORD; it is the one who keeps an oath even when it hurts. It is the one who lends his money without interest and the one who does not accept a donation to vote against the needs of the innocent. 

Worship Leader: Such a person will never be shaken.

Congregation: Help us to walk in your ways O Lord.

Luke 10:25-37

Crouched amid my humanness

I venture out

---- boldly

and I understand

---- intellectually

the meaning of the commandments

the meaning of life itself

that I am to love (LOVE)
not just in what I feel

---- (THE LORD)

but even in what I don’t feel

but still do

it sounds easy

it sounds good

and it is surely a wisdom

I will pass on

---- and on

-------- and on

to the third and forth generation

of those who………….

I will pass it on

---- (WITH ALL THAT YOU ARE)

the meaning of life

the meaning of the commandments

I only wish “they” would know these words

And understand what “I” understand

---- (AND LOVE)

and maybe “they” would not act like

---- look like

-------- talk like

that

---- (YOUR NEIGHBOR)

then the world would be a better place

and all would be sweetness and light

---- (AS YOURSELF)

if they would just learn to love

(AND JESUS SAID,

“GO AND DO LIKEWISE”)

-------- ?like me?

Opening Litany Psalm 25

Psalm 25: 1-10 - This psalm is an acrostic poem, the verses of which begin with the successive letters of the Hebrew alphabet, therefore in using the first ten verses I attempted to follow that patterning in English.

Pastor: All gather before you O Lord as we lift our souls to you.

Congregation: Be merciful onto us O Lord and do not let us be put to shame for we put our trust in You O Lord our God.

Pastor: Can anyone whose hope is in the Lord be put to shame?

Congregation: Doomed however are those who are treacherous without excuse, for they will be put to shame.

Pastor: Evermore you will show me your ways, O LORD and teach me to walk in your paths; You O Lord guide me in your truth and teach me your ways,

Congregation: For you are my God and my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long.

Pastor: Gracious Lord, Remember your great mercy and love, for they are from of old.

Congregation: Heed not the sins of my youth and my rebellious ways;

Pastor: Instead, remember me according to your love, for you are merciful, O LORD.

Congregation: Just and upright is the LORD who instructs sinners in the ways of righteousness.

Pastor: Kindly the Lord guides the humble in what is right and teaches them the ways of grace and mercy.

Congregation: Lord our God, all your ways are loving and faithful for those who walk in your ways.

Luke 10: 1-20

Wonders and Joys in the name of Christ

We all look for the wonders and joys

In a world full of hurt

---- pain

look for wonders and joys

in a world full of (my) needs

sent with nothing into the world

to heal

sent with nothing

except the God of love

to heal

and our Lord saw satan fall

as the people trusted

Fall

As they healed in the name of Christ

And begin to raise his ugly head again

When they said

---- look what I did

Wonders and Joys in the name of Christ

In the name of Christ

Psalm 66:1-5
