Thanks for praying and worshiping with me today. As always, our Scripture readings and general order come from the Book of Common Prayer (1979) Daily Office. In the Church calendar it is Ordinary Time, Proper 11. We’ll begin by singing a couple of worship songs: “O Lord, You’re Beautiful” written by Keith Green in 1980 and “Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus” written by Helen Howarth Lemmel in 1922. We’ll then read Psalm 50 followed by the Gloria Patri. Our Gospel reading is Matthew 26:69-75. After the Apostles’ Creed and the Lord’s Prayer, we’ll have a time of guided prayer. Our artist today is Bethanne Hill (https://www.thebethannehill.com).
