But even as we listen for your direction, other voices compete for our attention with teachings that speak to our desires.

Speak to us and encourage us as only you can; teach, correct, and inspire us to live into your salvation. Amen.

He descended into hell; the third day he rose again from the dead; he ascended into heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead. I believe in the Holy Ghost, the holy catholic church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.
