Psalm 37
Do not worry about evildoers for they will fade;
Delight in the Lord,
Trust in the Lord and be still and be patient with God,
Be at peace and don’t worry for God will protect.
James 3 | Background
Who is wise? Show your good works. Don’t envy. Act as a Christian, you do not ask for what you need; do not be a friend of the world; God gives grace to the humble; purify yourself and humble yourself. God saves, don’t judge your neighbor.
Mark 15
Jesus is before Pilate; Crucify him!; the Romans mocked him; Simon was compelled to take Jesus cross.

Collect for the Day
Grant, O merciful God, that your Church, being gathered together in unity by your Holy Spirit, may show forth your power among all peoples, to the glory of your Name; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
For Mission
Lord Jesus Christ, you stretched out your arms of love on the hard wood of the cross that everyone might come within the reach of your saving embrace: So clothe us in your Spirit that we, reaching forth our hands in love, may bring those who do not know you to the knowledge and love of you; for the honor of your Name. Amen.
General Thanksgiving
Almighty God, Father of all mercies, we your unworthy servants give you humble thanks for all your goodness and loving-kindness to us and to all whom you have made. We bless you for our creation, preservation, and all the blessings of this life; but above all for your immeasurable love in the redemption of the world by our Lord Jesus Christ; for the means of grace, and for the hope of glory. And, we pray, give us such an awareness of your mercies, that with truly thankful hearts we may show forth your praise, not only with our lips, but in our lives, by giving up our selves to your service, and by walking before you in holiness and righteousness all our days; through Jesus Christ our Lord, to whom, with you and the Holy Spirit, be honor and glory throughout all ages. Amen.
