2024 "In God's Hands" (Job 12:7-10)

"But ask the animals, and they will teach you, the birds of the air, and they will tell you; ask the plants of the earth, and they will teach you, and the fish of the sea will declare to you. Who among all these does not know that the hand of the Lord has done this? In his hand is the life of every living thing and the breath of every human being."

2023 "A Light in the Valley" (Psalm 23)

The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. The Lord makes me lie down in green pastures, they lead me beside quiet waters, they restore my soul. The Lord guides me in paths of righteousness for their name's sake. Even though I walk through the valley of darkness, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

2022 "Love Abounds" (1 Corinthians 13:4-7)

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
