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, Wednesday, April 27, 2011

Morning
Christ is risen!
Christ is risen indeed! Alleluia!

Invitatory Psalm 100
Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth,
Worship the Lord with gladness.
We come into your presence with singing.
We know that you are God, and that you have made us.
We are your people, the sheep of your pasture.
We give thanks to you, for you are good;
your steadfast love endures forever,
and your faithfulness to all generations.

Psalms 12, 13, 17

Daily Lectionary Reading, John 20:29-31

Lectio Divina
Jesus said to him, "Have you believed because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and yet believed because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have come to believe" (John 20:29)

As for the holy ones in the land, they are the noble, in whom is all my delight (Psalm 16:3)

Prayer for Today:
By your great mercy you have given us a new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead and into an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading. Strengthen in us the power to believe. Instill in us the desire to be your witnesses so that others can come to believe. Amen.

Midday Psalm 119:17-24

Evening
Psalm 18
