Revealing Himself to Us - Poem by Raymond A. Foss

The gospel, the Good News
in the scripture and in life
Christ revealing himself to us
giving us new birth

In the revelation,
not in what we read
anointed as his sibling
the sheep of his flock

Not in some subtle way
more important than this
Christ changing our hearts
turning us the other way

Our lives as servants
children on the living God
going to spread his message
that all may hear the word

Psalm 146:1-5 (Call to Worship)
Prayer of Dedication:
“Abundant God, we thank you for the jars of our lives
that are constantly being filled. We offer our gifts to you,
that others may know of your abundance and grace.
Fill the hungry with good things. Lift up the oppressed.
Watch over the stranger and comfort the lonely.
Through our gifts, may we do likewise.
In the name of Christ the Comforter, we pray. Amen”
