Matthew 6 : 22 - 29


22 The light of the body is the eye:
if therefore thine eye be single,
thy whole body shall be full of light.
23 But if thine eye be evil,
thy whole body shall be full of darkness.
If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness,
how great is that darkness!
24 No man can serve two masters:
for either he will hate the one,
and love the other;
or else he will hold to the one,
and despise the other.
Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
25 Therefore I say unto you,
Take no thought for your life,
what ye shall eat,
or what ye shall drink;
nor yet for your body,
what ye shall put on.
Is not the life more than meat,
and the body than raiment?
26 Behold the fowls of the air:
for they sow not,
neither do they reap,
nor gather into barns;
yet your heavenly Father feedeth them.
Are ye not much better than they?
27 Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?
28 And why take ye thought for raiment?
Consider the lilies of the field,
how they grow;
they toil not,
neither do they spin:
29 And yet I say unto you,
That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.




Today's Prayer...


Lord our God,

In you we want to find our strength,
in you we want to hold out even in these times.
We rejoice that the end is coming,
the end you are preparing,
when your salvation and justice will come on earth according to your promises.
Be with us and with the believing circle given to us through Jesus Christ.
Make us alert and give us fresh courage again and again,
however difficult life may be.
We want to continue to live and find strength in the grace of Jesus Christ,
holding on in joy without grumbling and complaining.
Lord God,
may your name be honored,
your kingdom come,
and your will be done in us according to your plan.”



In the Name of the Most Holy we
pray in Jesus' Name

Amen

Proverbs 16 : 13 - 20


13 Righteous lips are the delight of kings;
and they love him that speaketh right.
14 The wrath of a king is as messengers of death:
but a wise man will pacify it.
15 In the light of the king's countenance is life;
and his favour is as a cloud of the latter rain.
16 How much better is it to get wisdom than gold!
and to get understanding rather to be chosen than silver!
17 The highway of the upright is to depart from evil:
he that keepeth his way preserveth his soul.
18 Pride goeth before destruction,
and an haughty spirit before a fall.
19 Better it is to be of an humble spirit with the lowly,
than to divide the spoil with the proud.
20 He that handleth a matter wisely shall find good:
and whoso trusteth in the Lord, happy is he..




Today's Prayer...


Dear Father in heaven,

We thank you that we have you and the light of your Spirit,
which always gives us new determination for the tasks you ask of us.
We thank you that we may live not just in the passing moment
but also in eternity, looking with joyful hope to the future meant
for us and for all humankind.
Keep us in your Spirit,
and open to us truth after truth.
May we be part of that people who carry a light within them,
a light which will show them the way through all the struggles
and temptations of life;
then each one of us will know day by day that you can help us
and everyone on earth to a better life through your Holy Spirit.”



In the Name of the Most Holy we

Mark 9 : 19 - 27


19 He answereth him, and saith,
O faithless generation,
how long shall I be with you?
how long shall I suffer you?
bring him unto me.
20 And they brought him unto him:
and when he saw him,
straightway the spirit tare him;
and he fell on the ground,
and wallowed foaming.
21 And he asked his father,
How long is it ago since this came unto him?
And he said, Of a child.
22 And ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire,
and into the waters, to destroy him:
but if thou canst do any thing,
have compassion on us,
and help us.
23 Jesus said unto him,
If thou canst believe,
all things are possible to him that believeth.
24 And straightway the father of the child cried out,
and said with tears,
Lord, I believe;
help thou mine unbelief.
25 When Jesus saw that the people came running together,
he rebuked the foul spirit,
saying unto him,
Thou dumb and deaf spirit,
I charge thee,
come out of him,
and enter no more into him.
26 And the spirit cried,
and rent him sore,
and came out of him:
and he was as one dead;
insomuch that many said,
He is dead.
27 But Jesus took him by the hand,
and lifted him up;
and he arose.




Today's Prayer...


Dear Father in heaven,

As your children may we truly receive something from you
to bring our lives into a living bond with you.
Grant that we may overcome everything harmful and evil.
May it be given to us to help that your kingdom may come
closer and closer, that your will may be done,
and Jesus Christ, your Son,
may be recognized as the light of the world for the
salvation of all people and their deliverance from all evil.
Protect us and grant that your Spirit may remain with us.”



In the Name of the Most Holy we

Mark 10 : 44 - 52


44 And whosoever of you will be the chiefest,
shall be servant of all.
45 For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto,
but to minister,
and to give his life a ransom for many.
46 And they came to Jericho:
and as he went out of Jericho with his disciples and a great number of people,
blind Bartimaeus,
the son of Timaeus,
sat by the highway side begging.
47 And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth,
he began to cry out,
and say, Jesus,
thou son of David,
have mercy on me.
48 And many charged him that he should hold his peace:
but he cried the more a great deal,
Thou son of David,
have mercy on me.
49 And Jesus stood still,
and commanded him to be called.
And they call the blind man,
saying unto him,
Be of good comfort,
rise;
he calleth thee.
50 And he,
casting away his garment,
rose,
and came to Jesus.
51 And Jesus answered and said unto him,
What wilt thou that I should do unto thee?
The blind man said unto him,
Lord, that I might receive my sight.
52 And Jesus said unto him,
Go thy way;
thy faith hath made thee whole.
And immediately he received his sight,
and followed Jesus in the way.



Today's Prayer...


Dear Father in heaven,

We thank you for this day and for all the loving kindness you pour out on us.
May we continue to receive your help and your protection.
Bless us in whatever we are allowed to do in your service,
that it may always be done in love to all people.
Watch over us this night and be with us.
May your will be done throughout the world,
so that at last all confusion may come to an end,
Satan’s work may be destroyed,
and your children may shout for joy that your will is
being done on earth as in heaven.”



In the Name of the Most Holy we
pray in Jesus' Name

Amen

Let our faith make us whole in Jesus precious name, Amen and Amen.
