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, Monday, June 6, 2011

Daily Prayer, Monday, June 6
Morning
May my meditation be pleasing to you, O Lord.

Invitatory Psalm 95
O come, let us sing to the Lord:
let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation!
We come into your presence with thanksgiving;
we make a joyful noise to you with songs of praise.
You, Lord, are a great God.

Psalms 57, 61, 64

Daily Lectionary Reading, John 20:19-23

Lectio Divina
After he said this, he showed then his hands and his side. Then thee disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord. Jesus said to them again, "Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you" (John 20:21-22).

O Lord, how manifold are your works! In wisdom you have made them all; the earth is full of your creatures (Psalm 104:24).

Midday Psalm 119:89-96

Prayer for today:
Empowering God, you gave the church the abiding presence of your Holy Spirit. Look upon your church today and hear our petitions. (Pray for the church, the world, your community, the persons closest to you.) Woo us to wish for and to work for, peace and justice among all your peoples. Amen. (from RCL Prayers and from Prayers of the People).


Evening
Psalms 87, 88, 91
