Tremble
Peace bring it all to peace
The storms surrounding me
Let it break at Your name
Still call the sea to still
The rage in me to still
Every wave at Your name
Jesus Jesus You make the darkness tremble
Jesus Jesus You silence fear
Jesus Jesus You make the darkness tremble
Jesus Jesus
Breathe call these bones to live
Call these lungs to sing
Once again I will praise
Jesus Jesus You make the darkness tremble
Jesus Jesus You silence fear
Jesus Jesus You make the darkness tremble
Jesus Jesus
Your name is a light that the shadows can't deny
Your name cannot be overcome
Your name is alive forever lifted high
Your name cannot be overcome
Jesus Jesus You make the darkness tremble
Jesus Jesus You silence fear
Jesus Jesus You make the darkness tremble
Jesus Jesus
Jesus Jesus
Jesus Jesus
Jesus Jesus You make the darkness tremble
Jesus Jesus
Simplify Prayer
Pastor: Lord God, knowing Jesus is the one thing needful for life and salvation. Grant us quiet and willing hearts to receive Your simple gifts; through Jesus Christ, Your Son, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.
All: Amen.
Scripture Reading
Luke 10:38-42 - As Jesus and his disciples were on their way, he came to a village where a woman named Martha opened her home to him. She had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet listening to what he said. But Martha was distracted by all the preparations that had to be made. She came to him and asked, “Lord, don’t you care that my sister has left me to do the work by myself? Tell her to help me!” “Martha, Martha,” the Lord answered, “you are worried and upset about many things, but few things are needed—or indeed only one. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.”
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: Exhausted?
Luke 10:40-42 - But Martha was distracted by all the preparations that had to be made. She came to him and asked, “Lord, don’t you care that my sister has left me to do the work by myself?

Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.”
Action Step
With The Lord Begin Your Task (LW 483)
With the Lord begin Your task
Jesus will direct it
For His aid and counsel ask
Jesus will perfect it
Every morn with Jesus rise
And when day is ended
In His name then close your eyes
Be to Him commended
Let each day begin with prayer
Praise and adoration
On the Lord cast every care
He is your salvation
Morning evening and at night
Jesus will be near you
Save you from the tempters might
With His presence cheer you
With your Savior at your side
Foes need not alarm you
In His promises confide
And no ill can harm you
All your trust and hope repose
In the mighty Master
Who in wisdom truly knows
How to stem disaster
If your task be thus begun
With the Saviors blessing
Safely then your course will run
Toward the promise pressing
Good will follow everywhere
While you here must wander
You at last the joy will share
In the mansions yonder
Prayer
Edina Heritage Award
The Lord’s Prayer
All: Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power, and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.
