GOD'S STRENGTH

The Third Sunday of Easter

PSALM 18:32 (MSG)
Is not this the God who armed me,
then aimed me in the right direction?


1 CORINTHIANS 1:25 (NLT)
God’s weakness is stronger than the greatest of human strength.

SUMMARY SENTENCE
God has strength we can't even imagine.

DAILY FODDER
What difference does it make if God is strong or weak? 

PRAYER
God of power and might, you alone are worthy of praise. Thank you for the solid assurance that your strength can guard me against doubts that assail me. I am sorry for the messes I make when I depend on my own power to bring change. Give me courage to share the good news with the strength of your Spirit. Amen.  (Daily TextsGround Up Grace edition)

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 will protect us from all forms of evil. 
Amen.
