This Is Light of the Valley

Labor Day Prayer

TL;DR = A prayer for rest and rejuvenation this Labor Day weekend.

Lord, on this Labor Day, we thank You for the blessing of work through which you provide our daily bread.

Thank you for the gifts and abilities you provide people to carry out the myriad tasks that allow us to live the lives we do.

Graciously grant us the strength we need to meet our responsibilities as well as the rest we need when we are weary. Amen.

The Thirteenth Sunday after Pentecost

Cost of Following Jesus

There is a cost to belong to God. Philemon was confronted with this as Paul urged him to receive his runaway slave Onesimus back without charging him. Yet Paul volunteered to pay Onesimus’ debt. His action reminds us of what Christ has done to pay all our debts of sin against God. Because our debt is paid, we do not hold on to the debt of sin others owe us but instead show them the rich love of God.

The Bible readings for this coming Sunday and Monday are: 
Deuteronomy 30:15-20
Psalm 1
Philemon 1:1, 7-21
Luke 14:25-35

The Sunday morning worship service will livestream at 10:30 am on both Facebook.com/lotvlayton and Youtube.com/lotvlayton

"I rejoiced with those who said to me, 'Let us go to the house of the LORD.'"
(Psalm 122:1)
