Faith is a living, bold trust in God's grace, so certain of God's favor that it would risk death a thousand times trusting in it. Such confidence and knowledge of God's grace makes you happy, joyful and bold in your relationship to God and all creatures. The Holy Spirit makes this happen through faith. Because of it, you freely, willingly and joyfully do good to everyone, serve everyone, suffer all kinds of things, love and praise the God who has shown you such grace. - Martin Luther

10 Days of Prayer - Day 5

Day 5 Friday, October 28th Unity among members of our congregation
I therefore, the prisoner in the Lord, beg you to lead a life worthy of the calling to which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, making every effort to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. - Ephesians 4:1-3

Thank God for the church, which is always Christ's church, and for our congregation. Thank God for those people in our congregation who have most profoundly influenced your life. Acknowledge before God that in times of change, well-meaning people often have differences of opinion. Ask God to build up our congregation, and bring unity of purpose to all members.
