Prayer Requests 9-15-18

Anyone have something to share?

Psalm 37:1-11

1 Do not fret because of those who are evil
    or be envious of those who do wrong;
2 for like the grass they will soon wither,
    like green plants they will soon die away.

3 Trust in the Lord and do good;
    dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.
4 Take delight in the Lord,
    and he will give you the desires of your heart.

5 Commit your way to the Lord;
    trust in him and he will do this:
6 He will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn,
    your vindication like the noonday sun.

7 Be still before the Lord
    and wait patiently for him;
   do not fret when people succeed in their ways,
    when they carry out their wicked schemes.

8 Refrain from anger and turn from wrath;
    do not fret—it leads only to evil.
9 For those who are evil will be destroyed,
    but those who hope in the Lord will inherit the land.

10 A little while, and the wicked will be no more;
    though you look for them, they will not be found.
11 But the meek will inherit the land
    and enjoy peace and prosperity.

Prayer Requests 9-14-18

It’s Friday, so please remember to pray for Mumsee, Mike, and the Nestlings.

Anyone else?

Psalm 34:1-16

1 I will extol the Lord at all times;
    his praise will always be on my lips.
2 I will glory in the Lord;
    let the afflicted hear and rejoice.
3 Glorify the Lord with me;
    let us exalt his name together.

4 I sought the Lord, and he answered me;
    he delivered me from all my fears.
5 Those who look to him are radiant;
    their faces are never covered with shame.
6 This poor man called, and the Lord heard him;
    he saved him out of all his troubles.
7 The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear him,
    and he delivers them.

8 Taste and see that the Lord is good;
    blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.
9 Fear the Lord, you his holy people,
    for those who fear him lack nothing.
10 The lions may grow weak and hungry,
    but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing.
11 Come, my children, listen to me;
    I will teach you the fear of the Lord.
12 Whoever of you loves life
    and desires to see many good days,
13 keep your tongue from evil
    and your lips from telling lies.
14 Turn from evil and do good;
    seek peace and pursue it.

15 The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous,
    and his ears are attentive to their cry;
16 but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil,
    to blot out their name from the earth.

Peter’s Pack of Pickled Pigskin Picks 2018 Week 3

Here you go, folks. The third week of seeing how good you are at guessing the winners of college football games. So far, not so good. The best anyone has done has been 6 out of 10. Where I teach, 60% is failing. So let’s see how we do this week. Mumsee chose the tie breaker. It’s going to be a big one as #17 Boise State Broncos travels to Oklahoma to take on the #24 OSU Cowboys. A real rodeo there. And the Pillow Fight moved North, since the ESPN choice is in the hurricane zone, so I chose two winless teams from the Midwest.

Get those guesses in by NOON EDT Saturday.

Week 3

 1. Hawaii @ Army

 2. #12 LSU @ #7 Auburn

 3. #1 Alabama @ Ole Miss

 4. #4 Ohio State @ #15 TCU

 5. #22 USC @ Texas

 6. #10 Washington @ Utah

 7. Rhode Island @ UConn

 8. Florida State @ Syracuse

 9. Pillow Fight: Central Michigan @ Northern Illinois

10. Tie Breaker (pick the winner and the final score): #17 Boise State @ #24 Oklahoma State
