Prayer Request & Scripture

SCRIPTURE OF THE WEEK

Psalm 40:1-3

“I waited patiently for God to help me; then He listened and heard my cry. He lifted me out of the pit of despair, out from the bog and mire, and set my feet on a hard, firm path, and steadied me as I walked along. He has given me a new song to sing, of praises to our God.”
