• First, please pray for wisdom and His guidance as we study Psalms. • Second, pray for each of us to be dedicated to this study and put time in each

week to be prepared. • Third, pray for us to reach out and invite somebody new to our class. As you read these Psalms at least once every 10 days, please take the opportunity to read them in different versions of the Bible.
