Thank you, Greenhouse Builders, for your prayer, promotion, and provision on behalf of our mission. As we transition into summer let us pray for wisdom in navigating our relationships, our travel, and our ministry opportunities. Receive this nudge to consider reading and praying through Proverbs with your family, a friend, or other loved ones this summer.
Pray for God’s wisdom to flow throughout the Greenhouse community: faculty, staff, students, and parents. Pray that our community will be strengthened as we grow in wisdom. As you prayerfully read the Proverbs, ask the Holy Spirit to prompt you in what…
to grow personally
to act on within our community
to humbly receive from someone else.
Proverbs 1: 1-7
The proverbs of Solomon son of David, king of Israel:
for gaining wisdom and instruction; for understanding words of insight;
for receiving instruction in prudent behavior, doing what is right and just and fair;
for giving prudence to those who are simple, knowledge and discretion to the young—
let the wise listen and add to their learning, and let the discerning get guidance—
for understanding proverbs and parables, the sayings and riddles of the wise.
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
At the Year-End Celebrations last week, Grammar 2 students recited Saint Patrick’s prayer. Pray these words over ourselves, each other, and the Greenhouse community on our adventures this summer. Consider praying this daily.
Christ with me, Christ before me, Christ behind me,
Christ in me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me,
Christ on my right, Christ on my left,
Christ when I lie down, Christ when I sit down, Christ when I arise,
Christ in the heart of every man who thinks of me,
Christ in the mouth of everyone who speaks of me,
Christ in every eye that sees me,
Christ in every ear that hears me.
I arise today
Through a mighty strength, the invocation of the Trinity,
Through belief in the Threeness,
Through confession of the Oneness of the Creator of creation.
