Rom
You have been saved by the grace of God in the person
of Jesus Christ (2). Hence, do not fear those who can take away your mortal
life (3), for the Lord will protect and defend you (1, Ps) unto life
everlasting.
Stewardship
The psalmist assures us that “the Lord hears the poor.” Often, however,
He answers their need through the generous gifts of good stewards. (See Psalm 69)
