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, June 8, 2011

Morning
May my meditation be pleasing to you, O Lord.

Invitatory Psalm 100
Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth.
Worship the Lord with gladness;
come into the Lord’s presence with singing.

We know that you are God.
It is you that made us, and we are yours.
we are your people and the sheep of your pasture.

We enter your gates with thanksgiving,
and your courts with praise.
We give thanks to you, bless your name.
For you, O Lord, are good;
your steadfast love endures forever,
and your faithfulness to all generations.

Psalms 71, 72

Daily Lectionary Reading, Numbers 11:24-30

Lectio Divina
And Joshua son of Nun, the assistant of Moses, one of his chosen men, said, "My lord Moses, stop them!" But Moses said to him, "Are you jealous for my sake? Would that all the Lord's people were prohets, and that the Lord would put his spirit on them!" (Numbers 11:28-29)

Yonder is the sea, great and wide, creeping things innumerable are there, living things both small and great. There go the ships, and Leviathan that you formed to sport in it (Psalm 104:25-26)

Midday Psalm 119:105-112

Prayer for Today:
Open us to your word even as it comes through the unexpected. Open us to the opportunities to share your word as we recognize that you have put your Spirit on us, and on others. Amen.

Evening
Psalm 104
