FOLLOWING

The 15th Sunday after Pentecost

NUMBERS 9:18 (MSG)
The People of Israel marched at GOD’s command and they camped at his command.

COLOSSIANS 3:17 (MSG)
Let every detail in your lives—words, actions, whatever—be done in the name of the Master, Jesus, thanking God the Father every step of the way.

SUMMARY SENTENCE
Let every single step of your day be in step with the direction that comes from God. That is success!

PRAYER
Shepherd God, thank you for leading us. I confess, though, that I still try to plot out my own course without even stopping to consider what you'd like me to do. Help me to tune into your direction. I'm pausing everything and asking right now -- what do you want from me today? I'm going to follow your lead. Amen.

THE LORD’S PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your Name, your Kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and forever. Amen.
