Steeped

"He has ordered peace for his people who worship him," Psalm 85:8.

Yes, Lord, you will speak peace with your people! We know that we need to listen to you for your peace to flow. We don't want to turn back to folly - keep us from it. Your salvation comes close to people who respect you. Yes, your glory, your shining brightness, your greatness, sets up camp in this land when your people truly worship you. Your love and your faithfulness meet here - your goodness and your peace meet in your people. Loyalty rises from earth and goodness looks over it all from above. Dear God: You give what is good and the land increases its yield. We offer back to you your own goodness to prepare your road to us. Thank you, O Lord God, for your faithfulness!

We meet with a brother or sister today steeped in God's peace. For, together, we worship God in spirit and in truth.
