*HYMN #143
This Is My Father’sWorld
I believe in God the FatherAlmighty, Maker of heaven and earth,
And in Jesus Christ,His only Son,our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of theVirgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified,dead,and buried; He descended into hell; the third day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of God the FatherAlmighty; from thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Ghost, The holy catholic church, The communion of saints, The forgiveness of sins, The resurrection of the body, And the life everlasting. Amen.
Great God of all creation, who are we that you are mindful of us?You count the hairs on our heads,and call us each by name.You tend to us and care for us,and we do not understand why. We cannot grasp your love for us,O God,for it is unlike us to be that loving and forgiving.We become caught up with our own needs and wants and desires, and we fail to see beyond anything but our own little circles.Turn us around,O God.Help us to see as you see,and to reach out as you reach out.By your Spirit,teach us to live truly as beings little lower than angels.In your mercy,forgive who we are and bless who we will be.Amen.
ASSURANCE OF PARDON (2 Corinthians 1:21-22)
Leader: It is Godwho makes us stand firm in Christ.He anointed us,set his sealofownership on us, and put his Spirit in our hearts as a deposit,guaranteeing what is to come.Therefore,let us assure one anotherof God’s pardon.
All: In Jesus Christ,we are forgiven. Thanks be to God.
Spirit of God, speak once again through the Words of Scripture that our listening ears may hear Your voice. Help us to place Your Word in our minds, treasure it in our hearts, choose it with our wills, and live it through our bodies. In Christ’s name we pray. Amen.
1 Lord,our Lord, how majestic is yourname in all the earth!
Youhave set your glory in the heavens.
2 Through the praise ofchildren and infants youhave established a stronghold against your enemies, tosilence the foe andtheavenger.
3 When I consider yourheavens, the workofyour fingers, the moon and the stars, which youhave set in place,
4 what is mankind that you are mindfulofthem, human beings that you care for them?
5 You have madethem a little lowerthan the angels and crowned them with gloryand honor.
6Youmade them rulers over theworks of your hands; youputeverythingunder theirfeet:
7 all flocks and herds, and the animals of the wild,
8 the birds in the sky, and the fish in the sea, allthat swim the paths of the seas.
9 Lord,our Lord, how majestic is yourname in all the earth!
Leader: This istheword of theLord.
All: Thanks be to God!
Psalm 8 NIV
Our Father,who art in heaven, hallowed beThy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. ForThine is the kingdom, and the power,and the glory forever. Amen.

Genesis 1:26-31 NIV
26 ThenGodsaid,“Letusmakemankindinourimage,inourlikeness,sothattheymayruleoverthefishinthe sea and the birds in the sky,over the livestock and all the wild animals,and over all the creatures that move alongtheground.”
27 So God createdmankind in his own image, in the image of God hecreatedthem; male and femalehe created them.
28 God blessed them and said to them,“Be fruitful and increase in number;fill the earth and subdue it.Rule overthefish in theseaandthebirds intheskyand overevery livingcreature that moves onthe ground.”
29 ThenGod said,“I giveyou every seed-bearingplant on the face ofthewhole earthand every treethat has fruit with seed in it.They will be yours for food. 30 And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds in the skyandallthecreaturesthatmovealongtheground—everythingthathasthebreathoflifeinit—Igiveevery green plant forfood.”Andit was so.
31 God saw all that he had made,and it was very good. And there was evening,and there was morning—the sixthday.

“Scriptures tells us that the Lord sometimes allows us to be ‘sifted’ for greater service. In otherwords, He may give Satan permission to affect an area of our life and thereby transform us into stronger witnesses for Him” like he did with Job.* If you’re going through a difficult time,let us share your burden.*From InTouch devotional,September 21,2022
