Blessed Assurance

It is the last week of, “This is Our Story. This is Our Song.” If you worshipped in-person during March, you know that we voted the brackets for our favorite hymns in the FUMC version of March Madness. This summer, the winners of the brackets will be the focus for the upcoming sermon series. As part of the series, I am writing a prayer inspired by the words of the focus hymn. This week’s hymn is “Blessed Assurance” As you prepare for worship, sing the focus hymn in your heart, keep the prayer on your lips, and renew your mind with the Scripture for this Sunday. If you are unfamiliar with the hymn, you can find the words online or in the United Methodist Hymnal on page 369.

Scripture: I Thessalonians 5:16-18

Prayer: Jesus you are mine. You give me a glimpse of your glory. I am your child, born of your Spirit and washed in your blood. I can only imagine the day when you will come again. I am happy and blessed in you. Oh, to be filled with your mercy and grace. This is my story, and this is my song! I will praise you all day long!

Blessings,

Rev. Sherri
