II. Selections
Psalm 63:4
So I will bless you as long as I live;
I will lift up my hands and call on your name.
Deuteronomy 29:14-15
I am making this covenant, sworn by an oath, not only with you who stand here with us today before the LORD our God, but also with those who are not here with us today. [ Moses to the Israelites]
2 Corinthians 9:12
...for the rendering of this ministry not only supplies the needs of the saints but also overflows with many thanksgivings to God.
Luke 18:17
" ...Truly I tell you, who ever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will never enter it."
III. Meditation: When good things happen
When we lift up our hands to bless you and call on your name,
our covenant with you is shared by those standing with us,
by generations past, and by generations yet to be born.
Our offering, when truly given to help the needy,
overflows with many thanksgivings to you.
And when we receive your kingdom as
a little child, it is then we enter it.
