give ear, O God of Jacob!

Read and reflect on Psalm 36
Daily Lectionary Reading, Acts 1:1-11
Lectio Divina
But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth (Acts 1:8).
He subdued peoples under us, and nations under our feet. He chose our heritage for us, the pride of Jacob whom he loves (Psalm 47:3-4).
Midday Psalm 119:49-56
Prayer for today:
Risen and ascended Christ,
you surround us with witnesses
and send us the Counselor
who opens our minds to understand your teaching.
Bless us with such grace
that our lives may become a blessing
for the world now, and in the age to come. Amen.
