Reflective Verse “Do everything without complaining or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe as you hold out the Word of life.” Philippians 2:14-16 Reflective Questions Does your life of faith and obedience guide the way you relate to the community God has placed you in? As children of God, are your words and actions consistent with the Word of life? Prayer God our Father continue to work in me to will and act according to Your purposes. Help me show my salvation in community life. Empower me to put away negative talk, overcome social discord and selfish ambitions. Let me be your faithful witness in the world in joyfully service and sacrifice to God. Amen.

Leader You are my hiding place; you will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance.

People I will instruct you and teach you in the way that you should go; I will counsel you and watch over you.

Leader Do not be like the horse or mule, which have no understanding but must be controlled by bit and bridle or they will not come to you.

ALL Rejoice in the Lord and be glad you righteous; sing, all you who are upright in heart! Amen.
