Prayers for the Diocese of Huron Synod May 16-18
"Lord God, as we set about this work, we ask that you will lead us step by step. Help us to see with our eyes. Help us to listen with our ears. Help us to think about what we are doing in our world. Guide us to recognize how great are our resources, and inspire us to put our plans, your plans, into action. Lord, for your sake, and not for the sake of those around us, may we not falter nor make empty plans but work to share your love and peace and to proclaim your gospel now and always. AMEN"

Shame & Lies
William Ramier wrote
at 12:32pm
"Turn from me shame and rebuke, for I have kept your decrees. The proud have derided me cruelly, but I have not turned from your law. Though the cords of the wicked entangle me, I do not forget your law. The proud have smeared me with lies, but I will keep your commandments with my whole heart. Let the arrogant be put to shame, for they wrong me with lies; but I will meditate on your commandments. Let my heart be sound in your statutes, that I may not be put to shame. The proud have dug pits for me; they do not keep your law. All your commandments are true; help me, for they persecute me with lies. The wicked have set a trap for me, but I have not strayed from your commandments. There are many who persecute and oppress me, yet I have not swerved from your decrees."
Psalms 119:22, 51, 61, 69, 78, 80, 85, 86, 110, & 157 (BAS)

God Protect Us
William Ramier wrote
at 11:25pm
"We expect God to be the ultimate protector. And we wonder if there could be a God if we're not protected. But it's an embarrassing reality that whatever our ideas and our systems may be, God is always going to be greater than our ideas. That's what it means to be finite and to have an infinite God, after all. Whatever we think things SHOULD be like, God is always acting in ways that transcend our expectations. We often find this incomprehensible. Sometimes we find it hurtful."
