Tomorrow marks the fourth Sunday of Lent. The service will focus on the fourth commandment in which God commands us to keep the Sabbath holy – to do so by resting. So I couldn’t resist the impulse to share Andrew Peterson’s, Rest Easy (which says we can rest easy that God loves us):

The folks at illustratedministry.com have put out colouring page prayers to mark the one year anniversary of COVID-19 being declared a Global Pandemic. I’ll be sharing those pages for the next few weeks in the Worship Resources. Why not print one out, colour it and mail it to a friend or family member?

Here is the file for the colouring page:

And the text of prayer says:

Wonder Worker,
In this year when everything changed,
when we felt worried and weary,
when we wailed and we wondered,
you gave us a promise…
Nothing can separate us from your love.
And nothing will be wasted.
With you at work,
light, life, love, and liberation
always win.
Amen.

Until tomorrow, dear friends, may you rest in God!
