II. Selections
Psalm 93:1
The LORD is King, he is robed in majesty;
The LORD is robed, he is girded with strength.
He has established the world; it shall never be moved.
Daniel 4:4-5
I, Nebuchadnezzar, was living at ease in my home and prospering in my palace. I saw a dream that frightened me; my fantasies in bed and the visions of my head terrified me.
1 Peter 4:10
Like good stewards of the manifold grace of God, serve one another with whatever gift each of you has received.
John 21:15
When they had finished breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, "Simon son of John, do you love me more than these?" He said to him, "Yes, Lord; you know that I love you." Jesus said to him, "Feed my lambs."
III. Meditation: Stewards of your manifold grace
You are King, robed in majesty;
you are robed, girded in strength;
you have established the world;
no human king compares to you.
Earthly kings may live at ease
in their home, prosper in palace;
but dreams still frighten them,
and fantasies and visions terrify.
Whether royalty or homeless,
teach us to serve one another;
only when we feed your sheep
do we show our love for you.
