Romans 6:6-7
6 For we know that our old self was crucified with him
so that the body ruled by sin might be done
away with, that we should no longer be
slaves to sin—
7 because anyone who has died has been set free from sin.
Today's Prayer...
Dear Father in heaven,we thank you for the
many ways you strengthen us and reveal your life to us.
We thank you for all your protection, also for your protection
of our faith and hope. Grant that your Spirit may penetrate
us more and more, enabling us to be your witnesses in
this evil and unhappy world. May your Spirit give us hope
for this life and for the life to come.
In the Name of the Most Holy we pray in Jesus' Name
Amen.

Ephesians 4:22-24
22 You were taught, with regard to your former
way of life, to put off your old self, which is being
corrupted by its deceitful desires;
23 to be made new in the attitude of your minds;
24 and to put on the new self, created to be like
God in true righteousness and holiness.
Today's Prayer...
Our dear Father,we ask you to
come to us from heaven and surround us with
your goodness and mercy, with your light and life.
We are weak, poor, and lost just when we need
to stand firm and hold on. But you are faithful.
You stay by us and help us. Continue to help and
sustain us, we pray. Do not let our lives be lived
in vain. May something of eternity be with us in
all we have to face in life, so that over and over
again we may find courage to start anew.
In the Name of the Most Holy we pray in Jesus' Name
Amen.

Isaiah 3:4-5
4 I will make boys their leaders,
and toddlers their rulers.
5 People will oppress each other—
man against man,
neighbor against neighbor.
Young people will insult their elders,
and vulgar people will sneer at the honorable.
Isaiah 3:10-11
10 Tell the godly that all will be well for them.
They will enjoy the rich reward they have earned!
11 But the wicked are doomed,
for they will get exactly what they deserve.
Isaiah 3:12
12 Childish leaders oppress my people,
and women rule over them.
O my people, your leaders mislead you;
they send you down the wrong road.
