Today’s Reading

6/28/2019      Day 178 Ecclesiastes 6:1 – 8:17 

Reflection |
Today -  Ecclesiastes 
Chapter 6 - Evil exists and bad things happen to everyone!
Enjoy life anyway! Life is a paradox. And the living will live
After you are gone. Enjoy life!
Chapter 7 - What is better? Be wise - ignore the foolish things;
Be slow to anger and seek wisdom.
Chapter 8 - Even power is limited for the powerful die; treat all
the same; there are always new things to learn; So enjoy yourselves;
Do what is right and righteous. Seek God in everything and be
surprised!
(NOAB 5, 2018 a.d.)

Let us confess our sins to God.

God of all mercy, we confess that you have sinned against you,
opposing your will in our lives. We have denied your goodness in
each other, in ourselves, and in the world you have created. We repent
of the evil that enslaves us, the evil we have done, and the evil
done on our behalf. Forgive, restore, and strengthen us through
Our Savior Jesus Christ, that we may abide in your love and serve
only your will.

Almighty God have mercy on you, forgive you all your sins through
the grace of Jesus Christ, strengthen you in all goodness, and by the
Power of the Holy Spirit keep you in eternal life. Amen

Bulletin at All Saints in Hillsboro, Oregon)
