It took a year to read the Bible, then almost 9 months to read the Apocrypha. Now, I'm going to try to offer reflections on the Narrative Lectionary. But, I won't be posting daily--at least, for a while.

Daily Prayer, Sunday, February 27, 2011

Morning
Invitatory Psalm 24

Psalms 147, 148, 149

Daily Lectionary Reading, 1 Corinthians 4:1-5

Lectio Divina
I am not aware of anything against myself, but I am not thereby acquitted. It is the Lord who judges me. Therefore do not pronounce judgment before the time, before the Lord comes, who will bring to light the things now hidden in darkness and will disclose the purposes of the heart. then each one will receive commendation from God (1 Corinthians 4:5).

O Israel, hope in the Lord from this time on and forevermore (Psalm 131:3)
.

Prayer for today:
O God of all the nations,
you manifested your love by sending your only Son into the world
that all might live through him.
Pour your Spirit on your Church,
that it may fulfill his command to preach the gospel everywhere;
send forth laborers into your harvest;
defend them in all dangers and temptations;
give the grace to bear faithful witness to you;
endue them with zeal and love, that they may turn many to righteousness;
through the same your Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
(UMBOW 314)


Evening
Psalms 144, 145
