A QUOTE
A moment’s insight is sometimes worth a life’s experience.
– Oliver Wendell Holmes
A TEXT
7 The law of the Lord is perfect, reviving the soul; •
the testimony of the Lord is sure
and gives wisdom to the simple.
8 The statutes of the Lord are right and rejoice the heart; •
the commandment of the Lord is pure
and gives light to the eyes.
9 The fear of the Lord is clean and endures for ever; •
the judgements of the Lord are true
and righteous altogether.
10 More to be desired are they than gold,
more than much fine gold, •
sweeter also than honey,
dripping from the honeycomb.
11 By them also is your servant taught •
and in keeping them there is great reward. Psalm 19
AND A PRAYER…OR TWO
Holy God, you love justice and hate oppression; you call us to righteousness and not to exploitation. Give us generous and loving hears, and eyes to see the splendour of your reign, that we may live in truth and honour, and praise you for the transformation of our lives, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
