FULL SERVICE GOD

DEUTERONOMY 33:27 (NLT)
The eternal God is your refuge...

JOHN 14:1-2 (CEV)
Jesus said to his disciples, “Don't be worried! Have faith in God and have faith in me. There are many rooms in my Father's house."

SUMMARY SENTENCE
Don't worry; God's operation is big enough to take care of whatever you need.

DAILY FODDER
What seems overwhelming to you now? Tell God about it.

PRAYER
Great God, your resources are greater than I can imagine. I confess that I worry about security issues related to health, the environment, and the political situation. Help me to let go of the worry to make room for you to work. I'm going to trust you. Amen. 

THE LORD’S PRAYER (ABP)
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 in heaven.
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.
