OUR
Heavenly Father, Thine we are, and Thee we desire to serve. We thank Thee that
Thou hast made us Thine in Christ.
We thank Thee also that Thou hast made it our privilege to
serve Thee. Help us, we pray, to serve Thee this day — each in the sphere and
under the conditions in which Thy providence has placed us. May each of us let
our light shine for Thee just where we are. May the same mind be in each of us
that was in Christ Jesus, our Lord, Who, though He was Lord of all, yet pleased
not Himself.
Make us strong to do the right and to resist the wrong. Give
us filial love for and confidence in Thee. Give us a spirit of brotherly
interest and kindness towards our fellowmen. Incline us, as we have
opportunity, to do good to all men, especially to them that are of the household
of faith.
Forgive our sins, and grant that we may more and more die
unto sin and live unto righteousness. Bless to us the discipline of life. May
we be more concerned to profit by that discipline than to escape its pain. For
Jesus' sake. Amen.
W. M. McPheeters, D.D.,
