Scripture Prayer

Psalm 28:7

The Lord is my strength and my shield;

In Him my heart trusts and I am helped;

My heart exults,

And with my song I give thanks to Him.

Father God, we praise You for your strength.  We thank You for shielding us from the enemy.   Our hearts trust in You as we are helped in performing those deeds You have called us to do.  Our hearts exult and we give thanks to You.

Our hearts exult and we give thanks to You for every good work that Father Shaw Mudge is doing in Your Name.  Lord, we ask that you continue to help him with the on-line theological program and with all parts of his ministry to Belize.  Be with him in his work in the U.S. as well, and with his family.  Make smooth the path for the Mudges as they move into a new home.

We pray for the translation on the online course work into Spanish for Belize and other Latin American countries.  We pray for the on-going work of the Spanish version of the Book of Common Prayer for the Church in the Province of the West Indies.  We pray for the course preparation work for the class to begin August 30.  We pray for the Holy Spirit’s guidance, a sense of humor, and flexibility, as well as peace, effectiveness, love, joy and creativity.

We ask all of this in Jesus’ name.  Amen.
