Today’s Scripture Reading

My heart has heard you say, “Come and talk with me.” And my heart responds, “ Lord, I am coming.”

Psalm 27:8

Genesis 1:26


Before daybreak the next morning, Jesus got up and went out to an isolated place to pray.

Today’s Meditation

Restoration Song

God called forth a people, and we responded to His call
‘Rebuild this ancient ruin, restore my city walls.’

He has led us day by day, as we listened to His voice
and we were fed on finest wheat, and manna from the skies.

When we started, we were strangers. We hardly knew each other’s names.
Now we are brothers and sisters, and we will never be the same.

As we built, brick by brick, we discovered the corner stone,
and as we let Him mould and fashion us, He built us up in love.

Now we have seen, and we have heard, that the Lord our God is great.
For a wilderness has been transformed, into His holy place.
