Convocation: Prayer and The Cross


Prayer: Dear God in Heaven, Father of The Lord Jesus Christ and The Holy Spirit of God in Christ Jesus: we pray for Peace, Hope and Love for all.

We pray for all those who are in need. We pray for those who are in trouble. We pray for the sick, the homeless, the jobless,and the elderly. We pray for all the saints of Jerusalem.

Thank You Lord for this ministry. People have been so blessed by it. We continue to ask that you bless our members and keep them well with Your words from the cross. Forgive them Lord.

We Thank God and Praise God for all spiritual blessings in Christ Jesus. Let us walk in the light of The Lord of our Salvation. We give You all the power, Honor and glory in Jesus name. A-men.
Convocation:
What We Behold
On The Cross
by Augustine of Hippo (c. 354-430)
"As they were looking on, so we too gaze on his wounds as he hangs. We see his blood as he dies. We see the price offered by the redeemer, touch the scars of his resurrection. He bows his head, as if to kiss you. His heart is made bare open, as it were, in love to you. His arms are extended that he may embrace you. His whole body is displayed for your redemption. Ponder how great these things are. Let all this be rightly weighed in your mind: as he was once fixed to the cross in every part of his body for you, so he may now be fixed in every part of your soul." Please share your comments and concerns.

Thank You Lord
