The Second Sunday in Christmastide
DEUTERONOMY 32:39 (MSG)
Do you see it now? Do you see that I’m the one?
Do you see that there’s no other god beside me?
I bring death and I give life, I wound and I heal—
there is no getting away from or around me!
ROMANS 14:8 (NLT)
If we live, it’s to honor the Lord. And if we die, it’s to honor the Lord. So whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord.
SUMMARY SENTENCE
We live to bring honor to God -- and him alone.
PRAYER
Lord of life, everything rises and falls according to your plan. Nothing is so out of control that it causes you to adjust your will. Thank you for being steady. I confess my fear of uncertainty. I acknowledge that 2022 is full of unknowns and that makes me nervous. Relieve me of my fears and put things in perspective for me so that I can live to honor you. Amen.
THE LORD'S PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your Name. Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and forever. Amen.
Since 2006, I've been modeling one way of using the MORAVIAN DAILY TEXTS* to maintain a daily conversation with God.
