The 13th Sunday after Pentecost
The fruit of righteousness will be peace,
and the outcome of righteousness,
calm and security forever.
~ Isaiah 32:17 (CEB)
God’s kingdom isn’t about eating food and drinking but about righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit. ~ Romans 14:17 (CEB)
SUMMARY SENTENCE
Right living, peace, and joy go hand-in-hand as we live out God's kingdom agenda.
PRAYER
God, it's a great thing that you have done for us -- and to which you call us. Your victorious sacrifice means we can participate in your righteousness -- your justice. Rein us in so that we can focus on these basics. I confess that I tend to drift and let unimportant things take over my life. But by your grace I'm going to focus on living right, creating peace around me, and sharing my joy with others -- in Jesus' name. Amen.
Since 2006, I've been modeling one way of using the MORAVIAN DAILY TEXTS* to maintain a daily conversation with God.
