SUMMARY SENTENCE

PRAYER
Good God, thank you for the way that you look out for us and call us to participate with you in extending your goodness. I confess that I'm sometimes stingy. It's not that I don't want to help others, it's just that I get so caught up in my own stuff that I don't really feel compelled to extend myself for others. Free me from being consumed with the world of my own making. Give me a heart for the needy that transcends circumstances -- and energy from your Spirit to serve. By your grace, I'm going to stay on task. amen.
