Thought for the Day, September 22, 2020

Posted by Traci Smith on

Thought of the Day: This week — Psalm 145. This Psalm is so rich and so full of gems. I won’t be excerpting the entire Psalm this week, but we will spend the whole week on it. I hope that this “bite sized” approach will help you reflect on this great Psalm.
Today:
4 One generation shall laud your works to another,
and shall declare your mighty acts.
5 On the glorious splendor of your majesty,
and on your wondrous works, I will meditate.
6 The might of your awesome deeds shall be proclaimed,
I’ve been thinking about this generation to generation aspect of our faith a lot recently.
How do we pass on our faith from one generation to the next?
Featured Announcements:
● TOMORROW: Join Keith Baumann and friends for a free outdoor concert of instrumental bluegrass, country and jazz music sponsored by the Chicago Federation of Musicians on Wednesday, September 23rd at 6:00pm. The program will include a quartet of fine musicians including Grammy-nominated banjo player and leader of the Special Consensus, Greg Cahill, guitarist Rob Curtis from the world-famous Chicago Cubs Dixieland band, bass player
extraordinaire Dan Kristan, and EPC’s own Keith Baumann on mandolin and dobro. This will be a fun all-ages program featuring some really great American roots and jazz music. The show will be held on the lawn at Elmhurst

and prayer!)
