🎣Opening Hymn

The Majesty Praise 

(from Global Canticle Hymn Book)

Give the winds a mighty voice. To sing Your praises, Lord, rejoice. Let every gust and gentle breeze carry the chorus of our hearts' ease.

In whispers soft or thunder loud,

May Your great name be echoed proud. 

Through forests swaying, mountains tall. 

Let creation's splendor hear Your call.

As winds converge from east to west. May they bear witness to Your love and rest. 

In every language, let them say,

"Glory to God, in every way." 

With every breath, we'll join the refrain. 

Our spirits soaring, hearts aflame. In harmony with earth and sky. We'll give You glory, till the day is high.

And when the winds fade into stillness deep, may Your majestic presence keep our souls on guard. May our hearts remain forever true. Reflecting Your glory, shining through.

🫧Reflection: 

    There’s a quiet kind of strength in letting go.  

Not the loud kind that demands justice,  

but the gentle kind that chooses peace.  

Forgiveness is not forgetting. 
it’s remembering without bitterness.  
It’s choosing to unclench your fists  
and open your hands to grace. 

You weren’t made to carry offense. 

You were made to reflect mercy. 

To walk light. 

To breathe free. 

To live at peace.

🥀Takeaway: 

     Let go of one thing today—  

a grudge, a harsh word, a silent war.  
And in its place, choose peace.

🪞Gentle Prompt: 

What would your life feel like if you truly forgave?

🌲Anchor Words:

    Release is not weakness—it is wisdom wrapped in grace.

Retaliation is easy; reconciliation is divine.

The scroll of milk flows not with vengeance, but with virtue.

Peace is not passive—it’s a pursuit.

Let go, not because they deserve it, but because you’re called higher.

The grace to release is the strength to reign.

Justice may be delayed, but peace must not be.

Forgiveness is the founder’s fire—it purifies, not punishes.

Milk nourishes; bitterness poisons. Choose your flow.

To release is to rise. To hold is to halt.

    ---  Inspirational words from the founder, Pst C. S. Akpan.

🛐 Prayer:  

    Lord, help me release what I’ve been holding.  

Heal the places where hurt has settled.  

Teach me to forgive like You do—  

fully, freely, and without fear.  

Let peace be my portion today. 

Amen.

🕊️Final Whisper:  

May peace find you today.  

May grace guide your release.  

May forgiveness open your future.
