Scripture reading
Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
–Hebrews 12:1-2
Thought of the Day
I love our scripture for today. I especially love it this week, because I am about to leave on our senior high workcamp 2006 and Hebrews 12:1-2 is our scripture for the week. We are talking about the journey of faith that we are on. We will talk about the holy people in our lives. We will talk about the holy places in our lives. We will talk about holy experiences in our lives.
Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers this week. There will be just over 250 of us working in Boerne, Texas. We will work on seven different projects. Each night we will study and spend time in small groups and end up with praise and worship. If you would like to scope out what we will be doing this week, go to our youth website and check things out. It is at www.mdumcyouth.org.
I hope and pray that you too will focus on your journey this week. Think about what we will be thinking about. Study what we will be studying. Worship Christ the King. Good Luck.
Prayer
Lord, Reveal Yourself to us in amazing ways this week. Amen.
