THOUGHT FOR MEDITATION
You shall be holy to me; for, I the Lord, am holy, and I have
separated you from the other peoples to be mine. Lev.20:6
*CALL TO WORSHIP
One: The earth is the Lord's and all that is in it, the world, and
those who live in it;
All: For he has founded it on the seas, and established it on
the rivers.
One: Who shall ascend the hill of the Lord? And who shall
stand in his holy place?
All: Those who have clean hands and pure hearts, who do
not lift up their souls to what is false, and do not swear
deceitfully.
All: They will receive blessing from the Lord, and vindication
from the God of their salvation.
One: Such is the company of those who seek him, who seek
the face of the God of Jacob.

"O taste and see that the Lord is good: happy are those who
take refuge in him. O fear the Lord, you, his holy ones, for
those who fear him have no want. The young lions suffer want
and hunger, but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing.
Come, O children, listen to me; I will teach you the fear of the
Lord. Which of you desires life, and covets many days to enjoy
good? Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from speaking
deceit. Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue
it." Psalms 34:8-14
