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.

Prayer for Today:
We pray for our world. Where there is conflict, bring peace. Where there is uncertainty and anxiousness, bring inner quiet. Where there is hatred, bring understanding and love. Where there is the terror of war, hover over your earth and bring a change to people's hearts. Where there is selfishness, bring generosity and a change of heart. Where there is peril, bring comfort and courage. Amen. (taken from Prayers of the People, Richard J. Einerson).

Midday Psalm 119:78-88
