Prayer To God
Lord, let the light of Your face shine on us! (Psalm 4:6B)
Answer me when I call, O God of my right!
You gave me room when I was in distress.
Be gracious to me and hear my prayer.
How long you people, shall my honor suffer shame?
How long will you love vain words and seek after lies?
Lord, let the light of Your face shine in us! (Psalm 4:6B)
Know that the Lord has set apart the faithful for Himself;
The Lord hears when I call on Him.
When you are disturbed, do not sin;
Ponder it on your beds and be silent.
Lord, let the light of Your face shine on us! (Psalm 4:6B)
Offer right sacrifices and put your trust in the Lord!
There are many who say, “O that we might see some good!
Let the light of Your face shine on us, O Lord!”
You have put gladness in my heart
more than when their grain and wine abound.
Lord, let the light of Your face shine on us! (Psalm 4:6B)
I will both lie down and sleep in peace;
For You alone, O Lord, make me lie down in safety. Amen! –Psalm 4:1-8
Salt & Light
Jesus taught, “You are the salt of the earth but if salt has lost its taste. how can its saltiness be
restored? It is no longer good for anything but is thrown out and trampled under foot. You are
the light of the world. A city built on a hill cannot be hid. No one after lighting a lamp puts it
under the bushel basket but on the lampstand and it gives light to all in the house. In the same
way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to
Your Father in Heaven.” –Matthew 5:13-16
