Before we had our regular Thursday Bible study, we had a period of song practice where we try and learn at least one new song. Our brother Stepan lives in his own private house as a widower. He has a grandson who lives with him along with his wife. Stepan enjoys looking after his garden. He keeps growing in his faith and love of the Lord. Lyuda lives in an apartment building similar to the one where we live. She and Stepan live near each other and often ride the same bus and tram to get to where we meet. She is a very diligent student of the Bible and is always asking pertinent questions. She shares the answers with her friends and neighbors. Thank you for your prayers.Honor all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king. (1 Peter 2:17)
Всех почитайте, братство любите, Бога бойтесь, царя чтите. (1-e Петра 2:17 Russian)
Шануйте всіх, братство любіть, Бога бійтеся, царя поважайте. (1 Петрово 2:17 Ukrainian)
Den a todos el debido respeto: amen a los hermanos, teman a Dios, respeten al rey. (1 Pedro 2:17 NVI)
Lord God Almighty, our Dear Heavenly Father ~ Thank you for the sparkling gift of life on this new day. Give us wisdom so that we will live consistent with the highest values that we learn from Christ our Lord. Even if we are persecuted, help us to show the highest respect for all people and especially the rulers of the nations. In particular, renew within us the highest love for the church that Christ purchased with His own blood. In Jesus name we pray, Amen.
