Refresh your memory of us—you bought us a long time ago.
Your most precious tribe—you paid a good price for us!
MATTHEW 18:20 (MSG)
And when two or three of you are together because of me, you can be sure that I’ll be there.
SUMMARY SENTENCE
We may be a small group of misfits but God still remembers us, his precious people.

What's wrong with thinking that in the church bigger is better? What's right in thinking that in the church bigger is better?
PRAYER
Thank you, God, for being present with us—even though we're an unimpressive lot. Forgive us for thinking that we don't amount to much because we are a rag tag crew struggling to hold things together. Help us to recognize your presence and respond accordingly. We're not much to look at but because you're with us we can be a part of your operation to remodel the world through Christ. Amen.
Our Father in Heaven,
We hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
so that everything that happens here will align
with what is happening there.
Give us enough food for today.
Forgive us our wrongdoing,
and we’ll forgive those who have wronged us.
Shield us from the trials and temptations that come our way.
Lastly, we pray that you would protect us from all forms of evil.
Amen!
