Job
9:1-12, 14-16, Luke 9:57-62
The Most High, lord creator
and lord of all in earth
and heaven, has you in His
loving keeping: nothing
can happen save what he
wills or graciously allows.
All committed to His will
and loving purpose He holds
in the hollow of his hand
as they continue faithful
and obedient in the way.
protecting them from evil
and destruction and welcoming
them to His Presence in
time and through eternity.
The cost of true discipleship
to the Son of man, following
in His steps as they are
led and guided by Our Holy
Spirit, is total, costing
not less than everything.
Nothing less is worthy to
offer Him who gave Himself
in life and death that all
might have life in abundance
. Follow then, in faith
and trust and absolute self-giving
in the grace and power of
Our redeeming, sanctifying
love.
