pray

Pray from Psalm 118 today.  Here's a passage, for starters:

Out of my distress I called on the Lord;

the Lord answered me and set me free.

6 The Lord is on my side; I will not fear.

What can man do to me?

7 The Lord is on my side as my helper;

I shall look in triumph on those who hate me.

8 It is better to take refuge in the Lord

than to trust in man.

9 It is better to take refuge in the Lord

than to trust in princes.

Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good;

for his steadfast love endures forever!

Amenand even so, come, Lord Jesus!
