We are still recruiting cabin counselors! The Psalm of the month for May is Psalm 89 (p. 76 in the Trinity Psalter). Prayer of Confession & Repentance Oh righteous and holy Sovereign, in whose hand is my life, keep me from fluttering about religion: fix me firm in it, for I am irresolute; my decisions are smoke and vapor, and I do not glorify you or behave according to your will. I have contrived to tempt you to the uttermost, to wear out your patience by living evilly in word and deed. Cast me not into destruction and drive me not from your presence, but wound my heart that it may be healed; break it that your own hand may make it whole. Amen. -adapted from The Cry of a Convicted Sinner in The Valley of Vision
