For All Generations

As for us, our life is like grass. We grow and flourish like a wild flower; then the wind blows on it, and it is gone - no one sees it again. But for those who honor the Lord, his love lasts forever, and his goodness endures for all generations of those who are true to his covenant and who faithfully obey his commands.. (Psalm 103:15-18 GNB)

Today's meditation:

• Generations have come and gone in Emmanuel's 99-year history as the College remains a beacon of light and a fountain of knowledge thanks to God's enduring love. May we, the generations who lead today, be faithful to him and obedient so that generations yet to come will find the same life-changing impact as those who have gone before.

Pray today:

• For our Commencement activities this weekend, for all the many details and plans to be completed well, for all those involved from faculty and staff to parking attendants, for the host of volunteers who help, for all who will be traveling to and from, for the favor of God to rest upon us and upon our graduates.

Our prayers make a difference in our outcomes. Please continue to pray over the list below that focuses on key needs at Emmanuel College.
