God the Preserver of Man

Hymn 443

Scriptural Selection
Psalm 23

Silent Prayer

The Lord’s Prayer with its spiritual interpretation

Our Father which art in heaven,
Our Father-Mother God, all-harmonious,

Hallowed be Thy name.
Adorable One.

Thy kingdom come.
Thy kingdom is come; Thou art ever-present.

Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Enable us to know, — as in heaven, so on earth, — God is omnipotent, supreme.

Give us this day our daily bread;
Give us grace for to-day; feed the famished affections;

And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
And Love is reflected in love;

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil;
And God leadeth us not into temptation, but delivereth us from sin, disease, and death.

For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever.
For God is infinite, all-power, all Life, Truth, Love, over all, and All.

From Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy, pp. 16-17

THE LORD OF LOVE

Psalm 23, words
Robert Franz, music

The Lord of love my shepherd is,
Who all my wants doth fill;
With His own hand He leadeth me
Beside the waters still.
And in the paths of righteousness
He gently guideth me;
O shepherd kind, show me the way,
And I will follow Thee.

Thy rod and staff, they comfort me,
My soul Thou dost restore,
My head with oil Thou dost anoint;
My cup is running oe'r. 
Though through the darkening vale of death
My wandering steps should roam,
Thy loving hand still leads me on,
And guides me safely home.

Responsive Reading
Genesis 21:14–20 (to ;); Psalms 142:5; 16:1

And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread, and a bottle of water, and gave it unto Hagar, putting it on her shoulder, and the child, and sent her away: and she departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beer–sheba.

And the water was spent in the bottle, and she cast the child under one of the shrubs.

And she went, and sat her down over against him a good way off, as it were a bowshot: for she said, Let me not see the death of the child. And she sat over against him, and lift up her voice, and wept.

And God heard the voice of the lad; and the angel of God called to Hagar out of heaven, and said unto her, What aileth thee, Hagar? fear not; for God hath heard the voice of the lad where he is.

Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him in thine hand; for I will make him a great nation.

And God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water; and she went, and filled the bottle with water, and gave the lad drink.

And God was with the lad;

I cried unto thee, O Lord: I said, Thou art my refuge and my portion in the land of the living.

Preserve me, O God: for in thee do I put my trust.

Hymn 539

The scientific statement of being and its correlative scripture

There is no life, truth, intelligence, nor substance in matter. All is infinite Mind and its infinite manifestation, for God is All-in-all. Spirit is immortal Truth; matter is mortal error. Spirit is the real and eternal; matter is the unreal and temporal. Spirit is God, and man is His image and likeness. Therefore man is not material; he is spiritual.

(Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, Mary Baker Eddy, p. 468:9-15)

Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.

(I John 3:1–3)

Benediction
Hymn 278 Verse 1
Cared for, watched over, beloved and protected, Walk ... with courage each step of the way.
