Prayers

Calm My Troubled Heart

written by Craig Finnestad April 17, 2016

by Søren Kierkegaard

Calm the giant waves of my heart.
Calm this storm inside me.

Still my soul so I may experience Your grace.
Still my soul so I may find rest in You.

I have discovered the world doesn’t provide the peace I need.
Drench all areas of my life with Your peace.

Lead me to keep encountering the peace You provide.
Keep teaching me that nothing in life or death can take away the peace You give.

Amen.

On the Future of Methodism

I am not afraid that the people called Methodists should ever cease to exist either in Europe or America. But I am afraid lest they should only exist as a dead sect, having the form of religion without the power. And this undoubtedly will be the case unless they hold fast both the doctrine, spirit, and discipline with which they first set out. -John Wesley
