The Worship Quote of the Week for (06/15/1999):

Living for God
Today's WORSHIP QUOTE is a short prayer from a 16th century mystic, a
Spanish nun by the name of Teresa of Avila. Listen for echoes of the Apostle
Paul.



LIVING FOR GOD
Govern everything by your wisdom, O Lord, so that my soul may always be
serving you in the way you will and not as I choose. Let me die to myself so
that I may serve you; let me live to you who are life itself. Amen.

-Teresa of Avila (1515-1582)
