Safe in the<br />

Shepherd’s Arms<br />

by Max Lucado<br />

In today’s world it can be difficult to<br />

feel safe and secure. That’s why in<br />

Safe in the Shepherd’s Arms, Max<br />

Lucado offers a reliable source of<br />

safety and security from the twentythird<br />

Psalm. He describes this psalm<br />

as “written by a shepherd who<br />

became a king--because He wanted<br />

us to know about a King who<br />

became a shepherd.” With Psalm 23<br />

as our guide, we can release our<br />

burdens, throw off our fears, and<br />

rest safely in the shepherd’s arms.<br />

As we prepare to worship we ask that all cell phones and beepers be turned off and that food and<br />

drinks remain outside the Sanctuary. Parents, we want this time of worship to be a meaningful<br />

experience for you. If, during the service, your child needs attention, the Parlor (Room 3319)<br />

is available to you. The room is equipped with comfortable furniture and closed-circuit TV so<br />

you can continue to participate in the worship service while tending to the needs of your child.<br />

Welcome to<br />

Worship! This<br />

past week Apple<br />

unveiled the<br />

latest version of<br />

the iPhone. Now<br />

thousands are left<br />

feeling unsatisfied<br />

with their “old”<br />

iPhone. While<br />

culture teaches us<br />

to keep wanting<br />

what is new and<br />

next, God invites<br />

us to live a life<br />

of contentment.<br />

Today we’ll explore<br />

what that means.<br />

Ye Servants<br />

of God, Your<br />

Master Proclaim<br />

was written by<br />

Charles Wesley<br />

in 1744 during<br />

a year of severe<br />

persecution for<br />

John and Charles<br />

Wesley and their<br />

followers. Based<br />

on Psalm 93:1-4<br />

and Revelation<br />

7:9-12, the text<br />

encourages those<br />

who are suffering<br />

or in trouble to<br />

focus on the One<br />

“whose kingdom<br />

is glorious—who<br />

rules over all.”<br />

Prayer of Confession<br />

Merciful God, as our good shepherd you have promised<br />

to supply our needs from the depth of your riches. In<br />

our moments of weakness you grant us grace that is<br />

sufficient for the struggle. At your right hand there is<br />

fullness of joy and pleasures forevermore. Yet we refuse<br />

to be satisfied. We crave things that cannot last and<br />

expect from them a happiness they cannot give. Forgive<br />

our restless yearnings and teach us contentment. Grant<br />

that we might feast at the abundance of your table and<br />

find our deepest joy in you. Satisfy us even now as we<br />

make our silent confessions…<br />

Sacrament of Baptism<br />

In this spiritual<br />

we see Jesus as<br />

the gate to the<br />

sheepfold, but<br />

also he is the<br />

ever-present<br />

protector from<br />

Psalm 139:<br />

(SO HIGH)<br />

“If I ascend to<br />

heaven, you<br />

are there…<br />

(SO LOW) ...<br />

if I make my<br />

bed in Sheol,<br />

you are there.<br />

(SO WIDE)<br />

If I take the wings<br />

of the morning<br />

and settle at the<br />

farthest limits of<br />

the sea, even<br />

there your hand<br />

shall lead me,<br />

and your right<br />

hand shall hold<br />

me fast.”<br />

This hymn text<br />

reminds us that<br />

to claim Jesus as<br />

our “shepherd” is<br />

to acknowledge<br />

that we belong to<br />

him. Paul stated<br />

this truth plainly:<br />

“For you are not<br />

your own; you<br />

were bought at<br />

a price. Therefore<br />

honor God with<br />

your body”<br />

(1 Cor. 6:20).<br />

“When life gives you lemons, make<br />

lemonade.” That’s the way we used to<br />

look at difficult times of life. Now it seems<br />

that everyone says you need to hit the<br />

“reboot” button on life. But how do you<br />

do that This series of talks and studies in<br />

IRONMEN this late Spring/early Summer<br />

takes a look at life in today’s economic and<br />

professional climate through the lens of<br />

some of the experiences of ancient Israel.<br />

How does life get off track How do we<br />

function when life is not what we thought<br />

it would be How can we live faithful lives<br />

of integrity today<br />
