OPENING WORDS

CALL TO WORSHIP (Psalm 63:1-8)L: You, God, are my God, earnestly I seek you.A: I thirst for you, my whole being longs for you, in a dry and parched land      where there is no water.L: I have seen you in the sanctuary and beheld your power and your glory.A: Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify you.L: I will praise you as long as I live.A: And in your name I will lift up my hands.L: I will be fully satisfied as with the richest of foods.A: With singing lips my mouth will praise you.L: On my bed I remember you.A: I think of you through the watches of the night.L: Because you are my help,I sing in the shadow of your wings.A: I cling to you; your right hand upholds me.

HYMN*

OPENING PRAYER**Lord, we thank you for your grace that opens the gates of forgiveness to sinners like us. By your mercy, you transfer us from death row to new life. You move us from being broken people to being useful people. You alone know the art of making dead bones to walk again and broken string to play music. You are the God who picked us up from the miry pit, set our feet upon a rock and put a new song in our mouths – a hymn of praise to you, our God. Give us strength as forgiven people to be able to forgive as Jesus did. But when abuse and repeated offense threaten to ruin our lives, and our forgiveness is repeatedly walked over, help us to know the difference between being gracious and being wise. In Jesus name. Amen.

SCRIPTURE Matthew 5:21-26
