Prayer: Lord, your voice is over all. Bring us strength and peace. Amen
Reading: Psalm 29 (Click to read text) Stop and GROW: After reading the text, discuss/ponder the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America's Book of Faith questions, which are part of Camp Mount Luther's GROW Time with campers. QUESTION 1: What scares, confuses, challenges, or doesn’t make sense to me in this text? QUESTION 2: What delights me in this text or is my favorite part of the story? QUESTION 3: What stories or memories does this text stir in me? QUESTION 4: What is God up to in this text? Reflection: The word voice, as in the voice of the LORD, turns up seven times in Psalm 29 and is associated with power, majesty, breaking, flashing, shaking and causing other feats. Wow! And then the Psalm ends with the LORD giving strength and peace. I don't know about you but I would love to hear God's voice loud and clear. Most times or maybe just sometimes depending on what may need to be said to me. Words of power and majesty sure would be assuring. Breaking, flashing and shaking words may be tougher to take. So, I think I will listen more this year. Listen for that voice in both great storms and quiet stillness. Strength and peace are ours. Hear it? -- Ruth Gates
