Hymn of the Day
"How long, O God?" the psalmist cries, a cry we make our own. Though we are lost, alone, afraid, our God will lead us home. ("How Long, O God" - Text:Ralph F. Smith, 1950-1994)

Psalm of the Day
I cry out to be near You.
I come to You a needy man.
I come to You and seek You out.
I find that You found me.
I find that You were always near.
I find that You came down to save me.
I find Your Love up close and "in my face."
I find You.
I find out that You found me and rescued me from sin, death and the devil.
I find out that You have declared me to be Your child.
I find Your graciousness, kindness, patience and Love.
But most of all; I find that You came to find me.
I see Your Love.
I see Your Care.
I see Jesus.
I see how; while I was lost, You found me.
Thanks be to God!
