Many Worries
Pastor: Lord, I feel uncertain and worried about all I face. Please help me trust and to see Your hand at work in all things. May Your will be done in my life. Guide me on the path of peace knowing Jesus is always beside me. Amen.
Pastor: Psalm 94 assures us of God's peace in the midst of our many worries. We confidently speak these words together:
All: I was very worried. But you comforted me and brought me joy. (Psalm 94:19)
Sparrows
The sparrow’s not worried about tomorrow
Or the troubles to come
The lily’s not thinking about the seasons
The drought or the flood
The tree that’s planted by the water
Isn’t fazed by the fire
So why should I be
'Cause You take good care of me
You take good care of me
You know what I need
Before I even ask a thing
And You hold me in Your hands
With a kindness that never ends
I’m carried in Your love
No matter what the future brings
You take good care of me
The sun’s not worried about the winter
‘Cause soon it will pass
The light’s not thinking about the darkness
Or the shadow it casts
A heart that’s planted in forgiveness
Doesn’t dwell in the past
So why should I be
'Cause You take good care of me
You take good care of me
You know what I need
Before I even ask a thing
And You hold me in Your hands
With a kindness that never ends
I’m carried in Your love
No matter what the future brings
You take good care of me
I know there must be more
But I can’t get past Your kindness
I know there’s got to be more
But I can’t get past Your goodness
I know there must be more
But I can’t get past Your kindness
I know there’s got to be more
But I can’t get past Your goodness
You take good care of me
You take good care of me
You know what I need
Before I even ask a thing
And You hold me in Your hands
With a kindness that never ends
I’m carried in Your love
No matter what the future brings
You take good care of me
Scripture Reading
Matthew 10:29-31 - Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside your Father’s care. And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. So don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.
STP KIDS Dismissal
STP KIDS is the Children’s Ministry at St. Peter’s Edina, designed for all children from 6 months to 10 years old (Grade 5). Older children are welcome to participate as helpers. Our vision is to partner with parents in raising up a generation of children that will seek their God-given Kingdom mission and impact their world for Jesus!
Message
Luke 12:22-26 (NLT) - Then, turning to his disciples, Jesus said, “That is why I tell you not to worry about everyday life—whether you have enough food to eat or enough clothes to wear. For life is more than food, and your body more than clothing. Look at the ravens. They don’t plant or harvest or store food in barns, for God feeds them. And you are far more valuable to him than any birds! Can all your worries add a single moment to your life? And if worry can’t accomplish a little thing like that, what’s the use of worrying over bigger things?
Luke 12:27-30 (NLT) - “Look at the lilies and how they grow. They don’t work or make their clothing, yet Solomon in all his glory was not dressed as beautifully as they are. And if God cares so wonderfully for flowers that are here today and thrown into the fire tomorrow, he will certainly care for you. Why do you have so little faith? “And don’t be concerned about what to eat and what to drink. Don’t worry about such things. These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers all over the world, but your Father already knows your needs.
Luke 12:27-30 (NLT) - “Your Father already knows your needs.”
Where are the areas that you are being tempted to worry?
THE BIG TRADE: My worry for God’s peace

It Is Well With My Soul
When peace like a river attendeth my way
When sorrows like sea billows roll
Whatever my lot Thou hast taught me to say
Is is well it is well with my soul
It is well with my soul
It is well it is well with my soul
Though satan should buffet
Though trials should come
Let this blest assurance control
That Christ hath regarded my helpless estate
And hath shed His own blood for my soul
It is well with my soul
It is well it is well with my soul
He lives oh the bliss of this glorious thought
My sin not in part but the whole
Is nailed to His cross and I bear it no more
Praise the Lord Praise the Lord O my soul
It is well with my soul
It is well it is well with my soul
And Lord haste the day when our faith shall be sight
The clouds be rolled back as a scroll
The trumpet shall sound and the Lord shall descend
Even so it is well with my soul
It is well with my soul
It is well it is well with my soul
The Apostles Creed
All: I believe in God, the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth.
And in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate. Was crucified, died and was buried. He descended into hell. The third day He rose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven and sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty. From thence He will come to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Christian Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.
No Worry!
Pastor: God says: Fear not...
All: for I am with you.
Pastor: Do not be dismayed.
All: I am your God.
Pastor: I will strengthen you;
All: I will help you;
Pastor: I will uphold you with my victorious right hand.
(Isaiah 41:10)

Do It Again
Walking around these walls
I thought by now they'd fall
But you have never failed me yet
Waiting for change to come
Knowing the battle's won
For you have never failed me yet
Your promise still stands
Great is your faithfulness
Faithfulness
I'm still in your hands
This is my confidence
You've never failed me yet
I know the night won't last
Your word will come to pass
My heart will sing your praise again
Jesus you're still enough
Keep me within your love
My heart will sing your praise again
Your promise still stands
Great is your faithfulness
Faithfulness
I'm still in your hands
This is my confidence
You've never failed
Your promise still stands
Great is your faithfulness
Faithfulness
I'm still in your hands
This is my confidence
You've never failed me yet
I've seen you move
You move the mountains
And I believe
I'll see you do it again
You made a way
Where there was no way
And I believe
I'll see you do it again
I've seen you move
You move the mountains
And I believe
I'll see you do it again
You made a way
Where there was no way
And I believe
I'll see you do it again
I've seen you move
You move the mountains
And I believe
I'll see you do it again
You made a way
Where there was no way
And I believe
I'll see you do it again
I'll see you do it again
You've never failed me yet
I never will forget
You've never failed me yet
I never will forget
