Loving and Gracious God,
The beauty of springtime affirms Your presence in all creation. The power of Easter affirms Your love for all the world. As we walk though these next days and weeks may Your Holy Spirit enhance our journey. We seek to be immersed in the depths of Your love and rise as new creations in Christ. This is our prayer in Jesus’ name. AMEN.

PSALM FOR TODAY
Psalm 2
1Why do the nations conspire, and the peoples plot in vain?
2The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord and his anointed, saying,
3“Let us burst their bonds asunder, and cast their cords from us.”
4He who sits in the heavens laughs; the Lord has them in derision.
5Then he will speak to them in his wrath, and terrify them in his fury, saying,
6“I have set my king on Zion, my holy hill.”
7I will tell of the decree of the Lord: He said to me, “You are my son; today I have begotten you.
8Ask of me, and I will make the nations your heritage, and the ends of the earth your possession.
9You shall break them with a rod of iron, and dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.”
Grace and peace,
John McLemore
