Sentence:        I will stand like a guard to watch and place myself at the tower. I will wait to see what he will say to me; I will wait to learn how God will answer my complaint.

Collect:           Father, thank You that You desire to speak to us every day - guiding us in spirit and in truth to obey Your Word and enjoy an abundant life. Thank You that You have called us and that we may come boldly to the throne of grace to find help whenever we have a need.  Amen
