Great is God's faithfulness, a watchful eye in times of trouble. God's mercy never ends. We sing our praise and gratefulness! *Opening Hymn Be Thou My Vision UMH 451 All-Age Story Rev. Emily Flemming Koins for Kids Offering Arky, Arky Scripture Psalm 46:1-7 CEB John Simmons 1 God is our refuge and strength, a help always near in times of great trouble. 2 That’s why we won’t be afraid when the world falls apart, when the mountains crumble into the center of the sea, 3 when its waters roar and rage, when the mountains shake because of its surging waves. 4 There is a river whose streams gladden God’s city, the holiest dwelling of the Most High. 5 God is in that city. It will never crumble. God will help it when morning dawns. 6 Nations roar; kingdoms crumble. God utters his voice; the earth melts. 7 The LORD of heavenly forces is with us! The God of Jacob is our place of safety. ©2011 Common English Bible This is a Word of God for the people of God. Thanks be to God, Amen.
