“For the LORD is great and greatly to be praised;
He is to be feared above all gods.
For all the gods of the peoples are idols,
But the LORD made the heavens.
Honor and majesty are before Him;
Strength and beauty are in His sanctuary.
Give to the LORD, O families of the peoples,
Give to the LORD glory and strength.
Give to the LORD the glory due His name;
Bring an offering, and come into His courts.
Oh, worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness!
Tremble before Him, all the earth.”
~Psalm 96:4-9~

David worked with Judge Clayton James for many years. Pray for all those touched by his life as funeral services are held for him this morning at Crain Funeral Home in Franklinton.
Disaster Relief – Pray for Southern Baptist Disaster Relief workers and others as they continue to work in Columbia, MS where a tornado hit last week. May our disaster relief workers be able to share the love of Jesus for others as well as their own as the help the people to “pick up the pieces” of their lives. Also, pray for the safety and health of all those working there.

Pray for the youth of the church who have traveled to Gatlinburg, Tennessee for a conference. Pray their young lives will be molded into a God pleasing form through their experiences there. Thank God for parents who are willing to accompany them.
I don’t know how you feel, but I was blessed by our Lottie Moon Christmas Offering speakers yesterday. I hope you were encouraged to support our missionaries through the presentations yesterday.
