In Matthew 10, Jesus sends out the disciples with a recommendation to lean into God's ability to provide. As we seek to share the good news of God's love with the world, may we also find reminders of God's loving provision.

Let us pray:
Guiding One,
our call is to trust in you and your provision. As we seek to love boldy, serve joyfully, and lead courageously, may we trust in both the calling you have put before us and in your faithfulness to provide.
Amen.

Psalm 150

Praise the Lord!
Praise God in his sanctuary!
Praise God in his fortress, the sky!
Praise God in his mighty acts!
Praise God as suits his incredible greatness!
Praise God with the blast of the ram’s horn!
Praise God with lute and lyre!
Praise God with drum and dance!
Praise God with strings and pipe!
Praise God with loud cymbals!
Praise God with clashing cymbals!
Let every living thing praise the Lord!
Praise the Lord!

Romans 4:6-8

While we were still weak, at the right moment, Christ died for ungodly people.
It isn’t often that someone will die for a righteous person, though maybe someone might dare to die for a good person.
But God shows his love for us, because while we were still sinners Christ died for us.

An Evening Prayer

We praise and thank you, O God, for you are without beginning and without end.
Through Christ, you created the whole world; through Christ, you preserve it.
You made the day for the works of light and the night for the refreshment
of our minds and bodies.
Keep us now in Christ;
grant us a peaceful evening,
a night free from sin;
and bring us at last to eternal life.
Through Christ and in the Holy Spirit, we offer you all glory, honor, and worship,
now and for ever. Amen.

"Be Thou My Vision" (no. 451 in The United Methodist Hymnal) is based on Irish poetry from the 8th century. It is the kind of song which connects us with generations of believers who have come before us.

Can you remember some of the saints who helped you see God's presence in the world? Who has helped you see God?
