II. Selections
Psalm 24:1
The earth is the LORD's and all that is in it,
the world, and those who live in it ...
Isaiah 13:7-8a
Therefore all hands will be feeble,
and every human heart will melt,
and they will be dismayed.
Hebrews 12:28
Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us give thanks, by which we offer to God an acceptable worship with reverence and awe ...
John 3:27
John answered [ his disciples], "No one can receive anything except what has been given from heaven. ... "
III. Meditation: All the earth belongs to you, and so do we
The earth belongs to you, along with every thing and everyone in it;
no one can receive anything except what has been given from heaven.
But you have promised us your kingdom, which cannot be shaken;
so we give you thanks, and thereby offer to you reverence and awe.
When our hands become feeble, and every human heart melts, and
all are filled with dismay, remind us, O God-we belong to you.
