Call to Worship God, to Gather Together
Psalm 113:1
Praise the Lord! Praise, O servants of the Lord, praise the name of the Lord! Blessed be the name of the Lord from this time forth and forevermore! From the rising of the sun to its setting, the name of the Lord is to be praised!
When one thinks of the wondrous glory of Christ, how astonishing that He can join with us! But more, when one thinks of His bringing many sons to glory at such a cost, one is lost in adoring amazement.
~ G. V. Wigram
Prayer
Father God, on this day of resurrection that we celebrate again today, two suns would arise: The sun of our solar system and the Sun of Righteousness (Malachi 4:2). Both rise to shine on the evil and the good. May both run their course with great effectiveness from now until eternity. I thank You for them both and the blessing that they bring into my life and the lives of those whom I love. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
