How trying a we as a people, O Lord. I thank you for your mercy, your long-suffering, your grace as it is not earned-yet a gift which no man can measure to-I thank you. Lord, as this day ends, your word is our foundation. Your love is beyond measure-the joy that yours know as you, I thank you. Amen
