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, Thursday, May 30, 2013

Ascribe to the Lord, O families of the peoples,
ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.

Morning
Invitatory Psalm 150 Praise the Lord! Praise God in his sanctuary; praise him in his mighty firmament! Praise him for his mighty deeds; praise him according to his surpassing greatness! Praise him with trumpet sound; praise him with lute and harp! Praise him with tambourine and dance; praise him with strings and pipe! Praise him with clanging cymbals; praise him with loud clashing cymbals! Let everything that breathes praise the Lord! Praise the Lord!


Psalm 73


Daily Lectionary Reading, Psalm 96:1-5
Sing to the LORD a new song! Sing to the LORD , all the earth! 2 Sing to the LORD ! Bless his name! Share the news of his saving work every single day! 3 Declare God’s glory among the nations; declare his wondrous works among all people 4 because the LORD is great and so worthy of praise. He is awesome beyond all other gods 
5 because all the gods of the nations are just idols,
but it is the LORD who created heaven![Common English Bible]
