Lord Jesus Christ,
we listen to your word
to keep us from
stumbling--
from running back and
forth,
and from becoming
annoyed;
from trusting in our
wealth,
or boasting in our
riches.

Selected Verses
Ps. 49:5-6
Why should I fear in times of trouble,
when the iniquity of my persecutors surrounds me,
when the iniquity of my persecutors surrounds me,
those who trust in their wealth
and boast of the abundance of their riches?
and boast of the abundance of their riches?

"…Many shall be running back and forth, and evil shall
increase.” [From Daniel's vision]

priests, the captain of the temple, and the Sadducees came to them, much
annoyed because they were teaching the people and proclaiming that in Jesus
there is the resurrection of the dead.

"…I have said these things to you to keep you from
stumbling. …" [Jesus to his disciples]
