Psalm 37: 3-7a

Trust in the Lord and do good;
Dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.
Delight yourself in the Lord
And he will give you the desires of your heart.
Commit your way to the Lord;
Trust in him and he will do this:
He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn,
The justice of your cause like the noonday sun.
Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for Him.

Lord, we ask for travel mercies for Fr. Shaw, Mother Julie, and Lydia Mudge as they leave for the Mission Training Institute in Colorado on February 9. Be with them every step of the way and every moment of their days. May the teachings be fruitful and may they absorb everything that you would want them to know. May they do good as they trust in You. Keep them safe and let them delight in You. The Mudges trust in You and are committed to your ways. Thank You that You will make your righteousness shine down upon them like the dawn. May the justice of their cause glitter like the noonday sun. Help the Mudges to be still before you and always wait patiently for You. May Your Holy Spirit guide them every step of the way. Amen.
