Thinking of others
A recent study showed that if we reach out to others, we receive joy. Do we really need a study to tell us that? God placed us in communities for a reason, because we need each other. If we opt to keep to ourselves, no wonder we are lonely. Let's make reaching out to those around us a goal for this year. It's never too late to start.
Book Excerpt
Prayers of Confession for Lent
Selfishness
O LORD, we see the earth mourn and dry up as crops wither.
None of us will escape your judgment.
Why is this happening?
You have told us that the earth suffers because of the sins of its people. We have twisted your instructions,
violated your laws,
and broken your everlasting covenant. As a result, a curse consumes the earth, and we must pay the price for our sin.
Forgive us for our lack of care for the world you have given us.
Because of our greed and selfishness,
we have caused other inhabitants of this earth to suffer.
O LORD, we need your forgiveness!
LORD, in your mercy, hear our prayer.
Based on Isaiah 24:2-6
