Prayer for Trunk or Treat – Day 5: And lead us not into temptation
And lead us not into temptation, “Watch and pray that you may not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” (Matt 26:41) Our merciful Father, though we are flawed and sinful people, we thank You that now through Christ we are now a new creation and a chosen people. We thank You for the Holy Spirit working in us daily to regenerate us as we seek You. We confess that in our present time,…
Prayer for Trunk or Treat – Day 4: And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. Our gracious and forgiving Father, we come humbly and fearfully to You. Indeed, “If you, O Lord, should mark iniquities, O Lord, who could stand? But with you there is forgiveness, that you may be feared.” (Ps 130:3) Holy God, You could have judged us as condemned. Yet with the Lord there is steadfast love, and with You is plentiful redemption. (Ps 130:7) Thank You for redeeming us and now…
Prayer for Trunk or Treat – Day 3: Give us this day our daily bread.
Give us this day our daily bread. “He who did not spare his Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things?” (Romans 8:32). Our Jehovah-Jireh, the Lord Who provides, You provided Abraham a ram for a sacrifice so his son Isaac was spared. Yet for our salvation sake, You did not spare your firstborn Son. Rather, because of your love toward us, You gave beloved Son up as…
Prayer for Trunk or Treat – Day 2: Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.” (Isaiah 55:9) Our infinite Father, your way is holy and wise. Because You are able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, (Eph 3:20) we lift up Cornerstone and the Trunk-or-Treat into Your hands. Let us seek Your will together and walk…

Lucas Pender: A Personal Relationship with God
Hello, my name is Lucas Pender and this is my first year at Camp TED. I’m 15 years old and live outside of Boston, Massachusetts.
