Let us do good unto all men. Galatians 6:10
At the crowning ceremony of Queen Elizabeth II in June 1953, she declared on oath that she would, “keep the law, administer justice and execute all her judgments in mercy and to use her utmost power to maintain the laws of God and the true profession of the Gospel”. Ever under scrutiny in her many public engagements across the world, she was highly respected for her Christian faith and acts of kindness and concern for people. Despite her position, she lived out her faith to the glory of God and benefit of people. May we, let our light “so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven” (Matt. 5:16). —Brian Powlesland
Merciful God, how shall we raise our hearts to pay Thee all Thy praise?
Our hearts shall beat for Thee alone; our lives shall make Thy goodness known.
—Charles Wesley
