The Third Sunday after Pentecost
PSALM 13:6 (CEB)
Yes, I will sing to the LORD
because he has been good to me.
JAMES 5:13 (CEV)
If you are having trouble, you should pray. And if you are feeling good, you should sing praises.
SUMMARY SENTENCE
Regardless of the circumstances turn to the Lord in song.
PRAYER
Merciful God, receive these words as a song of praise, for you have been exceedingly good to me. Your faithfulness is beyond measure. Sometimes, though, when things aren't going well I turn inward and wallow in pity rather than turning to you in prayer. Reorient my life so that regardless of the circumstances I'm turning to you. Amen.
