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 9

Day 9 Thursday, November 3 - Financial support for the Rooted in Faith, Growing in Giving program
Each of you must give as you have made up your mind, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to provide you with every blessing in abundance, so that by always having enouch of everything, you may share abundantly in every good work. - 2 Corinthians 9:7-8

Thank God for the material blessings that have been showered upon you and the other members of our congregation. Acknowledge before God that everything you have belongs to God, and is given to you as a trust under your care. Ask God to fill our congregation with cheerful hearts as we respond to the opportunity before us. Ask God to move us to generosity as we dedicate to God's work the financial blessings that God has entrusted to us.
