Prayer: Lord, we praise you and sing for joy each day, at night and for always. May we trust you for the long run and grow in righteousness. Amen
Reading: Psalm 92: 1-4, 12-15 (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: In old age they still produce fruit; they are always green and full of sap, showing that the LORD is upright; he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him. Psalm 92: 14, 15 The image of a tree that still gives fruit in old age fits those who follow God’s ways. They do not live for the short term, but trust in God for the long run. Who do you know who has trusted in God for the long run? What can you learn from this person? --Ruth Gates
