VI Providence: The God Who Is Involved - Day 7



"O thou Chief of Chiefs, we kneel before thee in obeisance adn adoration. Like the bird in the branches we praise thy heavenly glory. Like the village sharpening stone, thou art always available and never exhausted. Remove we pary thee, our sins that hide thy face. Thou knowest that we are porr and unlearned; that we often work when hungry. Send rain in due season for our gardens that our food may not fail. Protect us from the cold and danger by night. Help us to keep in health that we may rejoice in strength. May our villages be filled with children. Emancipate us from the fear of the fetish and the witch doctor and from all manner of supperstitions. Save the people, especially the Christian boys and girls in the villages, from the evil that surrounds them. All this we ask in the name of Jesus Christ thy Son."
---Prayer from Zaire
