Welcome to you, in Jesus Christ our Lord.
Invocation - Inviting the Lord to be with us here.
O Lord, we know that You are everywhere,
And nothing happens that You cannot see,
But even so, we pray that You will come
And join with us directly at this time.
We now will offer up our praise to You,
And we do much desire to have You here.
In Jesus' holy name we pray, Amen.

The Lord's Prayer
The Lord, Himself, taught us to pray like this . . .
The Lord's Prayer
Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy Name,
thy kingdom come,
thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory,
for ever and ever. Amen.
Source: Book Of Common Prayer, based on
Matthew 6:9-13

NOTE: When you read this prayer, try to imagine hearing my voice as I
speak
it to you. In this way, the prayer is reactivated, and it is the same
as if I were actually praying for you at that moment.
(Just like television prayers are reactivated when you watch
them, although the videotape may have been shot years before.)
May God now bless the place that is your home:
The place where you take refuge from the storm;
The place you are entitled to possess.
I pray He sends His Holy Spirit there.
I pray the Spirit stays to dwell with you
And drives all evil spirits far away.
I pray the Spirit keeps you from all harm
And brings abundant blessings to your door.
I pray that all who live within your walls
May richly feel the power of His love.
In Jesus' holy name I pray, Amen.

The Duel That Never Happened: George Washington vs. William Payne
An Excellent Example Of Christian "Anger Management - (When George
Washington was a young man in his twenties.)
"The following account, often published, appeared in the Alexandria
Gazette
August 25, 1874:"
"When Washington, in command of the Virginia Rangers was waiting at
Alexandria the arrival of Braddock's forces, an exciting election contest
occurred between Mr. Fairfax and Mr. Payne for the House of Hurgesses.
Washington supported Fairfax with much zeal: and, high words passing
between
him and Payne in the market square, Payne struck Washington a blow which
brought him to the earth. The troops rushed from the barracks, and would
have made short work of Payne, had not Washington pacified them, assuring
them that he knew the proper course to take in the premises. Duels were
not
then under the ban of public opinion. All supposed that a fight was
imminent. Next morning, however, Washington sent for Payne, and when the
latter entered the room he saw on the table, not pistols, but a decanter
of
wine and two glasses. 'Mr. Payne,' said Washington, 'to err is human. I
was
wrong yesterday, but if you have had sufficient satisfaction, let us be
friends'. Weems relates that from that day Washington was Payne's idea of
true manhood."

Another account of the same events . . .
"At the time Gen. Washington was stationed in Alexandria as a colonel of a
British regiment, before the war of the revolution, an altercation took
place in the court-house yard, between him and William Payne, in which
Payne
knocked Washington down. Great excitement prevailed, as Payne was known to
be firm, and stood high, and Washington was beloved by all. A night's
reflection, however, satisfied Washington that he was the aggressor and in
the wrong, and in the morning he, like a true and magnanimous hero, sought
an interview with Payne, which resulted in an apology from Washington, and
a
warm and lasting friendship between the two, founded on mutual esteem. "

COMMENT: William Payne threw the first punch, thereby escalating a mere
verbal argument into a dangerous physical attack. Thus Payne was in the
wrong, and guilty of assault on Washington. But Washington -- following
the
teachings of Jesus -- did not seek retaliation of any kind, but instead
sought to establish friendship, which he did. And when Washington died
more
than forty years later, Payne was an honorary pallbearer at the funeral.
This is an excellent example of Christian "anger management."
