Fourth Sunday after Pentecost

Jeremiah 20:7-13 He rescues the life of the needy.

Psalm 91:1-10 “Under His wings you will find refuge.”

Romans 6:12-23 “The free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Matthew 10:5a, 21-33 Do not be afraid.

Collect of the Day

You have demonstrated Your power and love in many ways. Grant that we pass through this life with unshakeable confidence, knowing that truly there is nothing to fear and that one day we shall know the fullness of Your eternal presence in Your glorious kingdom. This we ask for the sake of Jesus, our Savior and our King. Amen.

Theme

God promises to be present with His people. Sometimes that presence is realized through the ministry of angels; at other times, it is special people who carry out God’s work on our behalf. Time after time in the Scriptures we hear the words “Do not fear!” spoken to people as they encountered God or His messengers. The good and gracious will of God, who values each one of His people, is that His children live out their earthly lives free from fear and confident of the eternal blessings that await them through Jesus Christ, our Lord.

Martin Luther’s Morning Prayer

I thank You, my heavenly Father, through Jesus Christ, Your dear Son, that You have kept me this night from all harm and danger; and I pray that You would keep me this day also from sin and every evil, that all my doings and life may please You. For into Your hands I commend myself, my body and soul, and all things. Let Your holy angel be with me, that the evil foe may have no power over me. Amen.
