A QUOTE, A TEXT AND A PRAYER…OR TWO
A QUOTE
“When we work well, our tastes, experiences, and values are held in check so that the nature of the material, or the person, or the process, or our God is as little adulterated or compromised by our ego as possible.” – Eugene Peterson
A TEXT
Lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor
rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor
steal: for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
– Matthew 6:20,21
AND A PRAYER…OR TWO
God of captives and pilgrims,
you brought your people home from despair
and gave them a land of freedom and plenty.
Look in mercy on us your servants,
deliver us from the prison of selfishness and sin,
and bring us home to justice, sharing, and compassion,
the realm you promised all the world
in Jesus Christ the Saviour. Amen.
