Lent Project - February 21

Thursday, February 21

Scripture: Psalm 27, Genesis 13:1-7, 14-18, Philippians 3:2-12

Questions/Thoughts: What can we learn about prayer from the Psalm? What can we learn about waiting patiently for the Lord? What do you think was going through Abram’s mind when the Lord was telling him of the land and descendants the Lord would give him? What are some things that you once thought were valuable, but are actually worthless when compared to know Christ Jesus? How are we made right with God?

Prayer:

As you did hunger and did thirst,

so teach us, gracious Lord, to die to self,

and so to live by your most holy Word.

And through these days of penitence,

and through your Passiontide,

for evermore, in life and death,

O Lord, with us abide.

Abide with us and through this life our doubts and pain relieve.

An Easter of unending joy we shall at last receive.

Amen
