AWESOME

Trinity Sunday

PSALM 92:4 (MSG)
You made me so happy, GOD.
I saw your work and I shouted for joy.

ACTS 4:33 (NTE)
The apostles gave their testimony to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus with great power, and great grace was upon all of them.

SUMMARY SENTENCE
God is engaged in awesome activity.

PRAYER
One God who is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, we praise you for continuing to work among us -- and including us in what you are doing. I can be a bit of a wimp when it comes to talking about my faith. Pour out your grace on me so that I might bear powerful testimony to the resurrection. I'm going to turn all the honor over to you. Amen.

*ABOUT THE
DAILY TEXTS

The Daily Texts have been published by the Moravian Church since 1731. In 2015 I started posting these Bible verses for my spiritual formation students at Pacific Islands University. In the process of responding to the verses, I found the rhythm of looking for a common thread and writing a prayer based on that key idea to be helpful for my own soul.

The prayers are more or less modeled on the TRIP method, which is what I ask my students to do in their journaling. ~ Brad Boydston
